Before you publish: Texas and federal rules
A few rules apply to any Union Grove business that sells or advertises online:
- Texas charges a 6.25% state sales and use tax, and local jurisdictions may add up to 2%, for a maximum combined rate of 8.25%. Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts
- A business that holds sensitive personal information must notify the people affected by a breach and, when at least 250 Texas residents are involved, must also notify the Texas Attorney General within 60 days of determining that the breach happened. Tex. Bus. & Com. Code Section 521.053
- Texas has no state-level general license, but city and county permits still apply, so check the local county and city government where the business operates. In Union Grove, that means asking Upshur County and the City of Union Grove. Official source
