Question by jwt7000: Is a business license required to run an online retail business from home?
I want to create an online retail business from home selling a specialized type of one guitar and one digital piano. I live in an incorporated area of LA County and I need to know if a business license is required to run an online retail business from home. Are there any other licenses, registrations, and others required before starting this?
