Licenses & Permits
State and local governments require many industries to have permits or licenses to operate. A business license is required for most businesses, including retailers and wholesalers. A trader's license is required for buying and re-selling goods. And you, or the professionals you hire, may need individual occupational and professional licenses. It is important to check at the state and local level to determine what licenses and permits you may need.
Maryland Licensing OneStop Portal
The State of Maryland has created a new licensing OneStop portal, which allows you to register for licenses and permits issued by state agencies, such as mechanic licenses, real estate and home inspection registrations, and insurance licenses.
Your local county's office of inspections, licensing or permits may be able to advise you of any local licensing requirements.
