Paperwork and rules for Illinois businesses online
A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same Illinois rules as any other.
- A trade name has to be your legal name or an assumed business name registered with Illinois. Assumed Business Name Act, 805 ILCS 405
- Illinois taxes general merchandise at a 6.25% state Retailers’ Occupation Tax rate, with a preferential 1% rate on qualifying drugs and medical appliances; municipalities and counties add local rates. Illinois Department of Revenue
- Local business tax receipts in Illinois can come from the county and, inside city or town limits, from the municipality: for you, Pulaski County and Mound City. Official source
This is general information, not legal advice. Your county, your city hall or an attorney can confirm what applies to you.
