What Texas asks of a business with a website

Some homework before launch:

• 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 Sun Valley, that means asking Lamar County and the City of Sun Valley. Official source
• Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, businesses open to the public must make their goods and services accessible to people with disabilities, and the Justice Department’s guidance says that includes their websites. ADA.gov guidance
• 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
