Running a website from Webster County: the Georgia rules
Selling or advertising online does not change the rules, but these apply to many Webster County businesses:
- Doing business under a name that is not your legal name? Georgia calls that a trade name (DBA), and it has to be registered first. O.C.G.A. 10-1-490
- Georgia’s state sales and use tax rate is 4%, and every county adds local taxes, so the combined rate is typically 7% to 9%. Georgia Department of Revenue
