Lancaster, Lancaster County
Setting up or forming a limited liability company (LLC) online is simple, easy and affordable, inexpensive process for under $60 plus state fees.
An LLC is a corporate structure and you will not be held personally liable for the company debts or liabilities because, similar to a corporation, owners have
limited liability for the debts and actions of the LLC. Limited liability companies (“LLCs”) are hybrid entities that blend pass-through taxation of
partnerships and corporations and preferable because they allow you to save on taxes.
For example, the “New LLC Law” that became effective in 2018 and the 20% reduction in business taxes for small businesses earning less than $157,500.
LLCs were first created in Wyoming in 1987 and have become the preferred entities because LLCs are not bound by the same rigid rules of corporations and require
no formalities such as corporate minutes to hold unless you filed an IRS form and you treat your LLC as a "C" corporation.
All LLCs need an IRS EIN after setting the LLC up, and a Responsible Person as well s keeping track of members and LLCs financial transactions and a filing of Form 5472.
Foreign persons will have to report individually the transactions. Form 5472 is an information return for tax purposes and after an LLC is liquidated, it must file a
final Form 5472 as well as when adding members.commercial cleaning

An LLC can help you avoid personal liability for debts or wrongs committed during business transactions.
For example, you become an LLC instead of a sole proprietor -- you become a sole proprietor by filing a DBA
and getting a business license -- someone slips and falls in your store, which is under the LLC, the plaintiff
can only sue the LLC not you personally.
So suppose you have $50 dollars in the LLC account and no other assets,
the plaintiff can only get that $50, instead of going after your house or automobile or personal accounts.
Bottom line, you avoid paying for the liability from your personal assets.
This is because the LLC is a separate entity and it can sue or be sued for its actions.
The LLC is a corporate entity that affords a lot of protections for you.

What is a DBA?
DBA stands for Doing Business As. It is an abbreviation for a business name or trade name.
So, if my business name is "The 3 Maskateers," this name would be my doing business as name, namely the DBA.
Hence, the saying, if you have a trade name, you will need to register it with a DBA certificate.
What is a DBA form?
A DBA form contains information about a trade name of a business at a certain address.
For example, if your business name is Beauty and the Bistro for your bistro business,
that name must be registered on a DBA certificate that is called
a DBA certificate or a fictitious business name certificate.
Why Do I Need to File a DBA?
This is because a trade name
is something not real, and thus fictitious that you thought out of your own mind. So, since it is a name
that you trade under, you must registered to make it official and the public can search and find out who
that trade name belongs to and who filed the form under what address.
Should I Start My Business Now?
Start your business today. Whatever you can conceive, you can achieve. Whatever the mind of man can conceive
and believe, it can achieve. Thoughts are things! And powerful things at that, when mixed with definiteness of
purpose, and burning desire, can be translated into riches – Napoleon Hill

Business License
What is a Business License?
Though it is called a business license, an occupational business license, a home occupation permit etc., It is a type of tax registration. All small businesses, even home or online businesses must register for occupational business tax. This type of tax license is different from income, sales, or employment tax. The small business is taxed on the basis of the nature of business, its location, the number of employees and several other factors such as the gross annual receipts.
So, for example, you are a small home business selling stuff online. You need to get a business license. In addition to the tax, which is usually a flat tax per year – average about $40 per year, you may have to go thru inspections to get the business license.
How Can I get a Business License?
You are issued a business license because the government regulates businesses and this is one type of regulation. For instance, they also require you to get a resale license if you sell taxable merchandise. The bottom line is that you need to get a business license. Keep in mind that you cannot get one without first getting a fictitious business name registration, as is the case in Florida.

DBA
DBA stands for “doing business as”. This means that, for example, if you are a small business owner and you name your business “Ultra A1 Clothing Fashions,” that name is a “doing business as,” name. The DBA is a fictitious business name also called an assumed business name or fictitious firm name. When you hear, you need a DBA filing; it means that you need to register your business name with a fictitious business name certificate. That filing may require legal newspaper publication, as well as filing proof of that publication. On this site, as of 8/22/12, the price to file a DBA starts at $119 and it includes all of the above: namely, the filing, the publication, the proof, and notarization, if required.

Do I Need A Business License?
Yes, because a general business license is a general business tax registration for all businesses. For example, if you are a CPA, you need a CPA state license but, in addition, to start working as a CPA making profits and income, you will need to register for a general business license as well.
In general, every person, such as a sole owner, or entity, such as an LLC, engaging in business activities for profit — including, home based business, home business, online business,internet and whether wholesaling, i.e. selling in bulk quantities, retailing, selling small amounts of items (including street vendor sales, flea market or at craft fairs), farming, services (including income received for professional and/or other types of services provided), construction contracting, rental of personal or real property, even in some cases just receiving business interest income and royalties — must apply for a general business license.

LLC
What is an LLC?
Perhaps more than 50% of small businesses that want to be a corporate entity, start as LLCs instead of corporations. LLC stands for Limited Liability Company. It is a state created corporate entity. That means that it is separate from its owners.
For example, it is 2012 and Robert wants to consult Syrian President Assad how to avoid going to war with USA with Obama or Romney as President. So he starts a consulting business and forms an LLC. The LLC is separate from Robert. Robert is a natural person with a SS#; the LLC is also a person but a legal person, i.e., it has separate existence. Its birth certificate is a corporate certificate filed with the state; its social security number is a federal tax ID number filed with the federal government.
Thus, as a person, the LLC can buy, sell, go into business, sue others be sued by others and generally do whatever any natural person does except of course become a parent because that would require intercourse with a live human being something that the LLC person is not.
Other Characteristics of an LLC
Another unique characteristic of the LLC is that it can be operated strictly as a corporation, a sole member owner or partnership. That means that if operated as sole proprietor, the owner will do his taxes as a sole owner and the income return will include income from the LLC. The LLC does not have to file a tax return. The advantage of this is obvious: the owner can claim profit and loss and save on taxes from personal losses against the LLC profits.
What does an LLC do for you?
Practically, forming an LLC, means that, you have the luxury of saving on taxes as a sole owner or partnership, and have the protections of corporate shield. That means that if anyone sues you for a transaction arising out of a business deal with the LLC, the plaintiff cannot sue you personally. He or she has to sue the LLC. If the LLC has only a mere $100 dollars in its bank account and no other assets, the judgment holder can only get that one hundred dollars. He cannot go after your expensive home or car.
What is a License?
A license, in general, is a permission given by an authority such as the government to an individual or business. The license grants the licensee the permission to be engaged in some activity. For purposes of this site, a license is a business license ( as opposed to a professional or other technical license). That means that you are given permission to perform services or sell products.
What Does a License Allow You To Do?
It does not give you permission to sell any specific products nor services. A business license is a permission to do business (almost any business), though there are limits, and the license is in fact issued to operate a certain type of business.
However, a business license does not license you to operate the business type but to operate the business in general. Thus, for example, you can get a business license to practice law but you still need to pass the state bar to actually practice law because you cannot practice law without the state bar license even though you need another license for the BUSINESS of law. That is the law office business.
Of course, you do not need a professional license to sell items from home as a home or online business selling on eBay, for example, but you do need a business license.
Business License Cost
Some jurisdictions will charge you a processing fee ranging from $10 to perhaps $40 and it is not uniform to quote here since it depends on the location. In addition, it may cost you another $0 to $50 for the flat annual tax you need to pay every year. That tax ranges from $0 to hundreds but I entered $50 because it is about $50 average. But do not fool yourself. It can be much more. In a famous city of the stars, in California, for example, you can pay as much as $1,000.00 to obtain your business license. According to them, it is because you are using their city to market your business so you need to pay the price. However, in most cases, you will not have to pay the cost in advance nor is it high even upfront. Prepare to pay anywhere from $0 to $40 business license cost.
What is an LLC operating agreement?
The LLC operating agreement is the equivalent of the corporate bylaws. That is, it is a document that contains information on who owns what part of the LLC, who will be doing what duty and other rules on how the LLC will be operated. Thus, for example, the LLC operating agreement states what are the voting rights, how long the LLC will last, where the principal place of business will be, who contributed what and how much of it to the LLC, how profit distribution will be effected, who the manager(s) , the type of record keeping used, who may join as an additional member, what the duties and rights of the member s are, what percentage each member owns, and who will be a working member and who a silent member. Finally, the LLC operating agreement is the only document that states who the owner(s) is. Without the LLC operating agreement, we could not know. Thus, the agreement is indispensable.

What Does LLC Stand for?
An "LLC" stands for "Limited Liability Company"
LLC vs S-Corp vs C-Corp
Both an LLC and an "S-Corp" are more flexible and more beneficial for starting a small business. An LLC is more flexible than an S-Corp but with the S-Corp you can pay yourself in dividends.
A C-Corp is good if you want to split personal and corporate profits and deduct your total health insurance and have fringe benefits.

How to profit from the new tax law that allows 20% reduction in taxes for small businesses with one LLC or two LLCs
How to save with an LLC and the new tax law. The new 2018 tax law allows for a 20% reduction in small business taxes if your taxable income is below $157,500 if single or $315,000 if married.
Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is a 20 percent deduction for qualified business income from pass-through entities, including S corporations and limited liability companies. However, business people with service businesses such as doctors and lawyers, may not be able to grab the deduction if their income is too high.
To go around that obstacle, you need to create two separate, companies. The first, your service business cant take the deduction, but the second company may be able to do so if it owns a building and you use the services income to pay the LLC that owns the building that you use for your practice rent.
So, let us say that you made $280,000 in income from your services as a consultant. That exceeds the $157,500 so you may even need another 3rd LLC to create that does your advertising.
So you split the $140,000 to pay for rent to the LLC that owns the Building and pay $140,000 for aadvertising, search engine optimization etc to the other advertising LLC. |

ANSWER: Minimum business South Carolina
licensing and Trade Name Certificate requirements 7 You are legally required to get a Business License, and record a DBA certificate. A Business License is a legal requirement by all businesses. Finally, you need to get a DBA because the trade name you do business under must be filed and published with the clerk. You can also register an LLC or set up and Incorporate instead of registering a DBA.
An LLC or corporation is a better choice than a dba because a DBA ( Doing Business As ) business name filing alone does not protect your personal assets. However, the information can go deeper because the matter is legal, and tax related.
On the other hand, an LLC and Corporation are both corporate entities that provide legal and financial protections as well as tax benefits.
In short, the LLC is better because it is more flexible to run as far as paperwork is concerned.
For example, as opposed to an S-Corporation, an LLC does not have to record annual meeting and or corporate minutes.
Generally, forming an LLC is better than Incorporating your business whether as a C corporation or an S Corporation ( the S corporation is more for small businesses.
However, you cannot go wrong with either an LLC or an S Corporation entity because both provide a real cheap business insurance and insurance against creditors, personal civil and tax liability protections.
