What permits/licenses do I need to become a craft vendor in Georgia? I want to sell handmade clothing and accessories at outdoor markets/fairs/festivals. I understand I need a federal and state tax id to pay appropriate taxes , but I don't know if I need a business license, register as a business like LLC or just a DBA.
Answer
You will need a business license from either the city or county where your business will be located. Otherwise, you should retain a local business attorney to guide you through the rest as it is too complex to describe in a forum like this.
Answer
Before you do anything, you sit down with both a CPA and lawyer to determine what business form (corporation, LLC, d/b/a) is most advantagous for tax, liability and other reasons. You are certainly going to need a local business license, and may need other things depending on many details we do not have.
