Before you publish: Virginia and federal rules

Having a website brings no special license, but a few apply to many Mount Crawford businesses:

• Counties, cities and towns may levy a business, professional and occupational license (BPOL) tax; the license fee itself is capped at $100 in localities over 50,000 people, $50 between 25,000 and 50,000, and $30 below 25,000. In Mount Crawford, that means asking Rockingham County and the Town of Mount Crawford. Va. Code Section 58.1-3703 (BPOL)
• Virginia’s state retail sales tax rate is 4.3%. A 1% local tax applies statewide, so the general rate is 5.3% almost everywhere, and some regions add a further 0.7% or more. Virginia Department of Taxation
• A business that owns or licenses computerized data containing personal information must notify the Office of the Attorney General and every affected Virginia resident, without unreasonable delay, once it believes unencrypted personal information was accessed and is likely to cause identity theft or fraud. Va. Code Section 18.2-186.6
