Does the PA Open for Business site contain all the state permits, licenses, registrations, and forms needed to start a business?
No, currently this site does not contain all of the state permits, licenses, registrations, and forms needed to start a business. Depending on the type of business you are involved in, additional forms may be required. PA Open for Business is an evolving tool for new and existing businesses and we are working hard to provide additional resources for you as quickly as possible. You are advised to contact your local municipality and/or county government to verify the requirements to operate your business in a particular locale. For general information on these requirements, contact the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development’s Small Business Resource Center at 800-280-3801.
