"If you don't have the right professional license for your type of work, you might receive a cease and desist letter from the cityâor if you don't understand the local ordinances that apply to you, you might lose your liquor license. It all depends on your location and the nature of your business."
A business license is a government-issued document authorizing a company to operate in a specific jurisdiction. Federal, state, and local governments may require general licenses or specific ones for certain activities.
Georgia business owners may need federal licenses for industries like agriculture and transportation, while state licenses vary based on location and business activities.
