The legal basics for Lafe businesses online

A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same Arkansas rules as any other.

• Arkansas’s state sales and use tax rate is 6.5%, and cities and counties add local rates on top of it. Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration
• A federal rule (16 CFR Part 465) makes it unlawful to write, buy or sell fake reviews and testimonials, so the reviews on a business website have to be real. 16 CFR Part 465

This is general information, not legal advice. Your county, your town hall or an attorney can confirm what applies to you.
