Overview:
Before you launch your new business, you'll need to apply for a business license with your city or county. The process of starting a business is often complicated, so the Georgia Secretary of State recommends that you consult an attorney or accountant as you create your business plan.
What You Should Know:
- In some cities and counties, you'll first need to secure a state tax identification number, a trade name registration and zoning approval for your business location. Additionally, your business may also need to apply for corporate registrations, professional licenses, or other special operating permits prior to application.
- To find out more about business licensing in your area, you can visit your local Chamber of Commerce or development authority.
- Learn more about starting a business and registering its trade name, fictitious name, or Doing Business As (DBA) title with the First Stop Business Information Center on the Georgia Secretary of State website.

Do I have to pay a registration fee for each additional location of my business?
It depends. Most likely, yes, you may have to register each location and pay the fees for both. However, the Corporations Division strongly recommends you obtain professional legal, tax, and business advice in order to make sure all requirements of the law are met (both before and after you open a second location).
