WHAT KIND OF SMALL BUSINESS LICENCE DO I NEED TO RUN MY BUSINESS FROM HOME AND SELL FROM MY WEBSITE?

I have the home formed qualification commercial operation as well as I will be offered by my website as well as during qualification fairs. I need to know if there is the ubiquitous tiny commercial operation looseness which covers internet sales or if the internal city looseness covers it. Thanks!

contact you state equalization board. Additionally you may need a federal tax id

I have a business like this in Wisconsin, all I needed was a mobile sellers permit to do the craft shows and to sell out of my home by mail. It cost $15 and renews for free automatically every year. Once a year (January) I send in any sales tax collected.

I sell in PA and have a show coming up in IL. Pennsylvania only required a mobile sellers permit also, which was $10 and renews for free every year. I file every 6 months for the sales tax collected. Most states are like this.

However IL on the other hand said theirs is free, but I have to file sales tax every month–if I only do one show, to send in the tax after that before the end of the next month, but to call and have them de-activate the license till I need it again for their state.

Check with your department of revenue, they’ll let you know what you need.
