What are the Penalties for Failure to Obtain a Business License Tax Prior to Commencing Business?
Any business which operates a business without first obtaining a Business License Tax may be liable for a penalty of 100% of the current year’s license fee, plus any prior year’s unpaid license fee. For failure to pay a license tax when due, the Business Outreach Specialist shall add a penalty of ten percent (10%) of the original license tax on the last day of each month after the due date; provided, that the total penalty to be added shall in no event exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the amount of the original license tax due.
