Business license compliance is critical to keeping a business running. The United States alone has over 75,000 different licensing authorities, ranging from the federal government to states and municipalities. Each authority has its own licensing process, and nearly 65 percent of business license requirements change from one year to the next.
Now, some state governments have begun to intensify enforcement of their business license requirements in actions prompted by the gig economy and new concerns about public safety. The challenge to stay compliant is intensifying, especially in those states with heavier regulations and stricter enforcement measures.
