Kentucky and federal rules for small business websites

Selling or advertising online does not change the rules, but a few apply to most Midway businesses:

• Kentucky sales and use tax is 6% of gross receipts, and there are no local sales and use taxes anywhere in the state. Kentucky Department of Revenue
• Accessibility is a federal matter: the Justice Department’s ADA guidance covers the websites of businesses open to the public. ADA.gov guidance

Each business is different; this is general information, not legal advice.
