| | | | Lawn care Licenses | |
| Yes, I'm looking to start a new business. Am I able to do those things through this site, or is it more just for info? Business Licensing Information. All businesses need a business license. If you sell any merchandise, you may want to obtain a resale ID first. Then all businesses are legally required to get a business license. In addition, if you use a trade name to conduct business. Also, keep in mind that if you decide to hire employees, you will need to apply and get an IRS EIN and register for state employment taxes i.e., get a state identification number. Finally, corporate entities are more prestigious so though you may need to register a DBA Doing Business As you may want to consider becoming a corporation or limited liability company. |
You can choose to be a(n) Lawn Care :
- Sole Proprietor,
- LLC,
- Corporation or
- Partnership.
After you decide and select your business entity, you need licensing.
Fort Lauderdale Business Tax Registration (
Business License)
All businesses including home, online or mobile BUSINESS need a BUSINESS license because they are BUSINESSES.
|
A(n) Lawn Care business using a fictitious business name in
Broward County
i.e. you are a business with a trade name other than the owner's legal (full name) name are required to get a(n)
fictitious business name.
For instance you open a(n)
Lawn Care
business and you name it "Superior
Lawn Care
Group". You will need to file a fictitious business name for that name.

In
FL
you need a resale ID ( AKA seller's permit) if you selling touchable items.
(A.K.A state id, wholesale, resale,
reseller certificate, about $39 for most states).
Seller's Permit
Note: All businesses need a federal tax ID number except sole proprietors that are not employers and are not independent contractors.
An independent contractor is a self employed business person that receives more than $600 per year from anyone of his or her clients.
IRS rule: The client must issue a 1099 form to the independent contractor and the independent contractor must have a federal tax ID.
However, even sole owners may obtain a federal ID and use it as a business tax ID instead of using their own social security number as a
business tax ID number.
However, all other licenses that apply to sole proprietors as discussed here are requited regardless of getting
a federal tax ID number.
Also keep in mind that employers will need to obtain a federal EIN and a State EIN tax identificattion number.
I.e., a FL Federal Tax Id Number ($29) and a(n) FL State Employer Tax Number
Instead of filing a fictitious business name DBA Filing (about $49 plus state and legal newspaper publication fees) in
Fort Lauderdale, Incorporate in FL or form a(n) FL LLC .
You have a choice to file a DBA or form an LLC or incorporate.
If you will do business under your first and last legal name you will not need to get a fictitious business name.
Using any language that connotes additional owners in the name of the business makes filing a fictitious business name mandatory.
If you do form an Home And Garden llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Lawn Care business instead of just filing a fictitious business name (dba),
it will help you avoid personal liability from wrongs arising from your business dealings and you will not have to file the Fort Lauderdale business name.
In lieu of recording a Broward County trade company name (our filing service fee includes trade name registration and newspaper legal publication for 4 weeks) you can also form a corporation in
FL or form an FL LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes required documents such as bylaws for the corporation and Limited Liability operating agreement for the LLC). .
