Iowa and federal rules for small business websites

Selling or advertising online brings no special license, but these apply to many Paullina businesses:

• A person who runs a business under a trade name instead of the owner’s own surname records a verified statement with the county recorder of the county where the business is conducted. Entities already registered with the state (LLC, corporation, LP) are exempt from this county filing. Iowa Code chapter 547 (section 547.1)
• Iowa’s state sales tax rate is 6%, and many cities and counties add a 1% local option sales tax on top of it. Iowa Department of Revenue
