The Dekalb County entertainer license fee has been raised to $300 per year. MUST pay by money order. NO exceptions. You'll have to pass a criminal background check.
The license will cover any club in Dekalb County, but it'd be a good idea to get hired at a club before you shell out $300 for the license. Once hired, the club will give you info and directions on how and where to get licensed.
Get a money order from the post office, leave it blank and take it with you to the license office. They'll tell you to whom to make it out once they approve your background check. (I recommend a post office money order because if for some reason you don't pass the background check you can take it back to a post office and cash it in your own name.)
You'll need 2 forms of ID:
1. valid state ID card or driver license (any state)
2. valid birth certificate or passport (US based) OR green card
Once approved and paid, they'll prepare your license and give it to you in a few minutes. I just did it today and the whole process took about half an hour. The license office isn't too hard to find.
