• Out-of-state sellers have to collect Alabama sales tax once they reach the state threshold: $250,000 of retail sales into Alabama in the previous calendar year (Simplified Sellers Use Tax program; flat 8% rate). Official source
• Alabama business privilege licenses are issued at county level; the state Department of Revenue coordinates state and county business privilege licenses, and the county probate office issues them. In Ranburne, that means asking Cleburne County and the Town of Ranburne. Official source
