What Texas asks of a business with a website

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

• 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 Wellman, that means asking Terry County and the City of Wellman. Official source
