Q: My business, Rats R And D LLC, will be a govt contracting business. Which licenses and permits may apply?
A: Welcome, good news: a govt contracting business is a well-trodden road, and we know its signposts. Each item below MAY apply to you, and we find out which ones do.
1. Business license: A business license for a govt contracting business MAY ask what goods or services you plan to offer under contract, who your clients are, and whether you work from home. 2. Home occupation permit: A home occupation permit MAY apply when proposals and paperwork are handled from a residence, usually with limits on visitors, stored supplies, deliveries and signage. 3. Sales tax permit: A sales tax permit MAY be needed if you supply goods under contract, while many public buyers are exempt from tax but still ask suppliers for a valid number and exemption paperwork. 4. Contractor registration: Bidding on public contracts typically requires registering the company in a bidder database and receiving an identification number. 5. Small business certification: Certain contracts are reserved for certified small or disadvantaged businesses, which needs documentation. 6. Capability statement: A short document listing your experience, services and past work is commonly asked for when bidding. 7. Insurance and bond proof: Many contracts require liability insurance and sometimes a performance bond. 8. Company papers: Name registration, LLC formation and a tax ID number are the three companions most owners add; we prepare each of them on this site.

Q: Before I open a general contractor, what paperwork may I need?
A: Here is the paperwork map for your general contractor. Every item says MAY, because what applies depends on how the business is set up, and sorting that out is our job. It also lists the personal license or trade license of the person doing the work, because a business license alone does not cover that.
1. Business license: A business license for a general contractor MAY ask about the trades you manage, the size of projects, the vehicles and equipment you own, and your subcontractor arrangements. 2. Home occupation permit: A home occupation permit MAY apply for a contracting business run from home, usually limiting stored materials, parked trucks, crews meeting at your address and visiting clients. 3. Sales tax permit: A sales tax permit MAY be needed when you supply materials as part of a job, and a resale certificate lets you buy fixtures and supplies for resale to clients. 4. Professional or trade license: Lead-safe renovator certification: Contractors working on older homes may need a personal lead-safe renovation certificate, earned through an accredited training course, where required. 5. Contractor license: Remodeling and building work MAY require a license that shows proven experience, passed exams and financial responsibility. 6. Permits per project: Specific building, electrical or plumbing work MAY need a permit for each project. 7. Contractor bond: A bond protecting clients and suppliers if work is not finished is often attached to the application. 8. Subcontractor insurance records: Copies of insurance from subcontractors may be kept on file for every job. 9. Employer registration: Hiring changes the list: an employer account, payroll tax setup and workers' compensation insurance MAY join the pile before the first paycheck. 10. Company papers: A DBA, an LLC or a tax ID number MAY make sense for your general contractor, and we prepare all of these documents on this site, so everything can be ordered in one place.

The set to start with is a business license, a sales tax permit, a resale certificate for your wholesalers, a DBA for the boutique name and, if your living room is the showroom, a home occupation permit. Several partners together are best placed in an LLC.
If you order a business license and it turns out you also need another one, such as a home occupation permit, we obtain both for the service fee of the business license. The govt's annual tax and application fees are separate and not included; we find the applications and fill them out for you.
