Illinois rules to know before your website goes live
Having a website brings no special license, but a few apply to many Hutsonville businesses:
- Fake or bought reviews are illegal under a federal rule in force since 2024 (16 CFR Part 465): post only real ones. 16 CFR Part 465
- 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
- Illinois has no statewide general business license; cities and counties impose their own taxes and may require zoning permits, so the city or county clerk is the place to check. In Hutsonville, that means asking Crawford County and the Village of Hutsonville. Official source
This is general information, not legal advice. Your county, your village hall or an attorney can confirm what applies to you.
