These are some of the North Carolina and federal rules a small business with a website runs into:

• If you send marketing email from your new business address, the CAN-SPAM rules (16 CFR Part 316) apply, including an easy way for people to opt out. 16 CFR Part 316
• 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 has no statewide general business license; some activities need a State Privilege License, and cities and counties may require their own licenses or permits, so check with the city and the county.
