Before you publish: North Dakota and federal rules

A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same North Dakota rules as any other.

• North Dakota’s state sales tax rate is 5% for most retail sales, and cities and counties may levy their own sales and use taxes on top of it. North Dakota Office of State Tax Commissioner
• 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

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