Commercial Business License/Fees

What are the fees for a Commercial Business?  (Note: Please read all information below before filling out the business license application or click here to view the Commercial Business License FAQ)
 

 
The business license fees are based on the annual gross receipts of the business.

• If gross receipts are less than $2000 per year,

The fee is $35.00 per fiscal year

Please note, if you choose a minimum license and go over $2000 in gross receipts, you will receive an invoice for the Mill tax, DID tax (if applicable), deposit and the difference in the license fees.

• If gross receipts are more than $2000 per year, the fee is based on the month the business is started. Use the chart below to figure out the amount due.

The business license year begins July 1^st and ends June 30^th.  Business licenses expire June 30^th.  The renewal fee is billed on the Declaration of Gross Receipts form for period ending June 30^th (see schedule below) and due by July 31^st, unless otherwise noted.

In addition to the business license fee, you will receive quarterly Declaration of Gross Receipts forms as follows:

After establishing a pay history, businesses with gross receipts less than $25,000 per year may be switched to a license that is valid for a calendar year (January 1^st through December 31^st).  Mill and DID taxes for the prior calendar year, along with the license renewal fee will be billed on the Declaration of Gross Receipts form that is sent out in January.  The license fee and taxes are due by January 31^st, unless otherwise noted.

A 5% penalty per month (up to a maximum of 25%) will be levied on the Mill tax, DID tax and license fee if the payment is paid in our office or postmarked by the post office after the Last Day to Pay.

• If gross receipts are filed quarterly, a refund may be requested after two full fiscal quarters of operation, or

• If gross receipts are filed annually, a refund may be requested after a full calendar year of operation.

To be eligible for the refund, all taxes and fees must be paid by the due date during the applicable time period. Refund requests must be made in writing.

If you cancel your license, the deposit will automatically refunded after a final Declaration of Gross Receipts form is filed and all outstanding taxes and license fees paid.
