Business License If a business is going to operate within the law, it will be necessary for you to obtain a license or permit in the city or county in which you will be doing business. Each location is different, some valuable resources about business licenses include: – City or County Clerk’s office – Local Chamber of Commerce Sometimes cities have restrictions on home based business or, zoning about home based businesses which may not permit you to have a business license to operate out of your home. Your business license must be posted wherever you are operating, even if you go to a trade show your license should be on display.
