Getting a new business started? Registering with the Department of State is your first step. We can gather all the necessary information to make sure your registration is processed as quickly as possible. Our registration service also includes getting your FEIN- a Federal Employer Identification Number. This will be required for all licensing and to register for sales tax.

Local tax receipts are issued from the county, and are a license from the county authority to operate. Some cities also require a business tax receipt separate from a LTR depending on where you’re located.

Business tax receipts are issued from your local municipality, such as the city or town. This will be required in addition to the LTR issued by the county. Like the Local Tax Receipt, this is a license for business operation inside the city limits. Depending on the city, requirements range from documentation of state licenses to proof of building department approval.

Registering for sales tax is something every business Florida must do- making sure it’s done correctly is essential to prevent future headaches. Because it is so necessary, we have extensive experience making sure our clients have a brand new sales tax number ready for them from the day they make their first sale.
