Business license fees are a major source of revenue for the town of Bluffton. Over the past 10 years we have seen a major increase in licenses, going from 62 to more than 2,000. We appreciate the business community and want to help them in any way possible. We have set up a one stop shop in Town Hall to aid in getting new businesses the start-up info they need, as well as making it easier to pay your renewals. Bluffton believes in business.
The town mailed out about 2,100 business license renewals for 2012 in January. Please be aware that your license expired on Dec. 31, 2011. However, because of the nature of our renewal period, there is a grace period and your business license will be considered valid until April 16, 2012.
All business licenses are renewable annually, based on the previous year’s gross sales for business conducted in the town of Bluffton. To date, the town has received 498 renewals; 229 from in town businesses and 269 from out of town businesses.
For the first time this year we are accepting credit cards payments (Visa, MasterCard and Discover) in addition to the previously accepted cash and business check. Please stop in to our newly-renovated customer service center in Town Hall at 20 Bridge St. if you have questions or need assistance in renewing your license.
The town of Bluffton requires businesses operating within the town limits, including home occupations, to obtain a town of Bluffton business license. Applications are available on the town’s website. New business license applications are made by submitting a completed application either by mail or in person at the business license office at Town Hall.
If you have any questions or comments regarding business licenses, or to notify us of a change of address or closure of your business, please contact the business license department.
