Rules that apply to a Sanford business website
A few rules apply to any Sanford business that sells or advertises online:
- A federal rule (16 CFR Part 465) makes it unlawful to write, buy or sell fake reviews and testimonials, so the reviews on a business website have to be real. 16 CFR Part 465
- Texas charges a 6.25% state sales and use tax, and local jurisdictions may add up to 2%, for a maximum combined rate of 8.25%. Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts
- Texas has no state-level general license, but city and county permits still apply, so check the local county and city government where the business operates. In Sanford, that means asking Hutchinson County and the Town of Sanford. Official source
