Maryland Business Licenses
Maryland is a little different from other states in that they do not have Secretary of State Agency. Instead, the Maryland Department of Assessments & Taxation oversees business registrations for entities that regularly conduct business in Maryland. Businesses may also need to register for sales tax and withholding and unemployment tax accounts with the Comptroller of Maryland. If you will only be operating in Maryland temporarily, you may need an itinerant merchant license. Many business licenses in Maryland are administered on the county or city level. Learn more below about the specific registration and licensing requirements in Maryland, or contact LicenseLogix today for a free consultation.
LicenseLogix can help you acquire and maintain business licenses for all U.S. states and for most industries.
