August 22, 2008, Newsletter Issue #129: How to Apply for a Business License
Tip of the Week
Applying for a business license is usually the first step that a new business owner will take. When you decide to open a business, you must receive a license to operate your business within the city or county where it is located. Each municipality has its own business license forms, and it is important that you use forms specific to your jurisdiction. To find out the specific business license requirements for your area, contact your city or county License Commissioner’s office.
To complete your business license forms, you will need to provide basic information about the company you plan to operate. Information typically required for business license applications includes:
Name(s) of owners Name of the business entity A description of the profession or type of business activity Physical address of the business Mailing address for the business Business telephone number Home address for one of the owners Home telephone number for one of the owners Business licenses have to be signed and turned in to the appropriate local government representative along with an initial license fee and any other applicable required fees.
