Rules that apply to a Clarkston business website

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

• Many Washington cities license businesses, and those city licences are added to the state business license as endorsements, each with its own fee and extra processing time. In Clarkston, that means asking Asotin County and the City of Clarkston. Official source
• Under ADA Title III, a business open to the public should make its website usable by people with disabilities, according to the Justice Department’s guidance. ADA.gov guidance
• Doing business under a name other than the owner’s full legal name is one of the conditions that requires a Washington state business license, so the trade name is registered together with that license at the Department of Revenue. Official source
• Washington’s state retail sales tax rate is 6.5%, with a local rate added depending on the city or county. Washington State Department of Revenue

This is general information, not legal advice. Your county, your city hall or an attorney can confirm what applies to you.
