Why do I need a business permit?

You need permits and tax registrations because the government requires them before you start a business so you can pay the corresponding business taxes such as income, sales and employment taxes. 

 In addition, different types of business entities are taxed differently. For example, a sole proprietor is taxed different from an LLC. 

Note that you will need to select LLC and purchase an LLC filing to be considered an LLC. 

You can also file a DBA and form an LLC on this site.
