Paperwork and rules for North Carolina businesses online
Having a website brings no special license, but these apply to most Cajah’s Mountain businesses:
- Local business tax receipts in North Carolina can come from the county and, inside city or town limits, from the municipality: for you, Caldwell County and Cajah’s Mountain. Official source
- The general State sales and use tax rate is 4.75%, and counties add local and transit rates on top of it. North Carolina Department of Revenue (NCDOR)
- North Carolina files DBAs at COUNTY level: anyone – individual, business or legal entity – doing business under a name other than its own legal name files an assumed business name certificate with the register of deeds. One filing covers all counties, and up to five names may be listed on one certificate; the register of deeds forwards a scanned copy to the Secretary of State’s statewide database. N.C.G.S. Chapter 66, Article 14A
