Business Setup Guide

01. Choose Your Business Entity

Forming an LLC in Washington is highly recommended. It isolates your business assets and shields your personal wealth from operating liabilities.

02. Review Local Zoning & Permits

Check local home-occupation and municipal zoning plans for King County to make sure your workspace is authorized.

03. File for Your Municipal License

Submit registration forms for the General Business License to the Municipal Licensing Department. Operating without a valid local license can result in fines.

04. Obtain IRS EIN & Business Banking

Secure a Federal Employer Identification Number (EIN) online to open dedicated corporate accounts and start hiring.

Registration Fees

The Washington state filing fee is currently $100.
