North Carolina and federal rules for small business websites
Before your website goes live, it helps to have the basics of the business in order.
- 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
- Local business tax receipts in North Carolina can come from the county and, inside city or town limits, from the municipality: for you, Edgecombe County and Princeville. Official source
- The general State sales and use tax rate is 4.75%, and counties add local and transit rates on top of it. North Carolina Department of Revenue (NCDOR)
