Do I need any licenses or permits?
Whether you need a license or permit depends upon the type of business you engage in, the location of your business, and federal, state, county, city, and local rules and ordinances. Some businesses and professions require a license from the state (for example, barbers and beauticians, doctors, lawyers, day care providers, and contractors and building trades persons). Cities and counties require permits for many business activities (such as construction or elevator operations permits). In addition, many local governments require a business license before you start your business (a license requiring payment of an annual fee or tax to do business in that city or town).
Business activities are generally highly regulated by government agencies. Many local governments have information centers for small businesses to assist with compliance to local, state and federal regulations. |
