If you are a consultant, you may only need a business license unless you are
a professional consultant such as an architect, engineer or other such
specialized professional where you will need a state professional license as well.
If you use a business name such as Consulting R Us you will need to file a fictitious
business name as well or incorporate or form an LLC if you want to become a
corporate entity.
Partnerships as well as sole proprietor consultants need a federal tax
id number because most of the time they work as independent contractors which requires
an IRS federal tax id number.
?
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
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.

Consultant
A consulting business is a business where a person or company provides expert advice to its clients. For example, if you want to start a business selling on eBay, you may want to consult with an expert so you can start on a solid basis as far the first steps are concerned.
With that in mind, you will need to be an expert in a certain field in order to be able to be a consultant and start a consulting business.
First, the business licensing is the easiest part for a consultant. You only need a business license and perhaps to register your business name (such as “best consultant,” or something similar).
If you will hire any secretaries or other office help, you will need both a federal and state EIN. Keep in mind that if you also decide to sell any tangible items such as books about consulting, you may also need to obtain a seller’s permit because you will need to collect and pay the state taxes for book sales.
Finally, you can also incorporate or form an LLC for your consulting business. If you decide to do that, you will not need to register the business name unless it is different than the LLC or corporation name.
Consultants need at least a business license even for a home based consulting business. Note that professional consultants such as lawyers, architects, doctors, etc, need a state professional license as well. A consultant is an expert in a particular field who works as an advisor either to a company or to another individual.
Recently, businesses have spent just over $14 billion on consulting. In fact, more and new consultants are springing up from everywhere everyday mainly because the technology has helped consultants acquire knowledge and sell it over the internet. What will make you a good consultant is knowing more about your subject than most people in your field.
For example, to be an IT consultant, you will need to know pretty much all about computers. On the other hand, some people know how to run companies and become consultants to new companies. If you are a legal consultant, a J.D. will not hurt you at all but there are other certifications that can help you as well.
On the other hand and IT consultant does not necessarily need to have any degree but one in the IT field will probably help. What are some of the most sought after consultants? First, are accountants because all businesses need some accounting.
On the other hand, all businesses need advertising as well and with fields such as SEO and internet advertising the field is large and easy to get into. Even though businesses need accounting and advertising, businesses need to make money as well and that requires a business consultant.
With most companies hit by the recession, Career counseling consultants are in need as well. Of course, there are computer, communications and editorial services consultants as well.
There is marketing, business writing, human resources and other consulting jobs so be prepared to make some money.
As a consultant, you can be an LLC, sole owner or partnership. LLC is a good choice. If you want to be an LLC, get the LLC filing, a federal tax ID number and a business license.

What type of licensing do I need for consulting?
You will need a special certification if you belong to a specialized professional field.
The license is usually called a professional license.
Here are the type of consultants that need special certification, which is usually from the state:
If you are a consultant in the field of:
1. Insurance,
2. real estate,
3. financial planning,
4. fundraising, and
5. accounting as well as lawyers, architects and other specialized fields.
Other than a professional license like the above, you will need a business license as opposed to professional license.
For consulting that means since consulting is your business and you earn profit, you need a business license
in addition to a professional license (if you are a professional).
Normally, consultants do need to incorporate or form an LLC but in most jurisdictions, you can become a
consultant corporation if you so wish. Finally, you can start as a sole proprietor which requires that
you file a DBA if you use a trade name or if using your own personal name, you will only need a business license.
Finally, note that if you sell anything tangible with your consultation business, such as books or other materials, you will
need a sellers permit to charge taxes for these sales.

ANSWER: Minimum business California
licensing and Trade Name Certificate requirements | 7 You are legally required to obtain a Business License, and a dba certificate. A Business License is usually a flat tax assessment and a percentage of your gross income -- as opposed to your income taxes on profit, or taxes on the sales of tangible items. At any rate, it is a required business registration tax that you must register for. A dba stands for Doing Business As, and it is the registration of your trade name if you have one. You are required to register your trade name within 30 days of starting your business. Instead of registering a dba, you can simply form an LLC or corporation and it will have the same effect, namely register your business name. |
