Business Privilege Licenses to Be Renewed in October
MONTGOMERY, Sept. 29, 1999--The Alabama Department of Revenue reminds business owners that October is the annual renewal month for state business privilege licenses. The license expires September 30, and must be renewed prior to
November 1, each year.
The business privilege license is a combination county and state license that is issued by the county license-issuing official of the county in which the business, profession or occupation is conducted. License fees vary depending upon the type of license that is required, and in some cases, upon the population of the area where the business is located, the number of employees a business may have, the gross amounts of contracts (applicable to building construction or excavation-type businesses), or upon the capital investment of a business, as in the case of manufacturing plants, etc.
For more information concerning the renewal of Alabama's business privilege licenses, business owners should contact the appropriate county license-issuing authority, who is usually the probate judge or license commissioner of the county where the business activity, profession or occupation is conducted or the Alabama Department of Revenue, Sales, Use and Business Tax Division at (334) 353-7827. Business privilege license information is also available by visiting the department's Web site at http://www.ador.state.al.us.
