New Online Master Business License and Registration Site
1. DCRA Unveils Improved Online Master Business License and Registration Site The Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs (DCRA) launched a newly revised online Master Business License and Registration (MBLR) application process. The greatly improved site is designed to provide step-by-step guidance to customers in obtaining their Master Business License. Not all business categories may be processed online, because of required inspections or approvals. Nevertheless, the new site provides information on necessary requirements for all business categories. Additionally, the new site offers specialized paths for commercial establishments, home-based businesses, individuals with no fixed business location, and rental property owners, tailored to the specific requirements for those types of businesses. The Omnibus Regulatory Reform Act establishes that all segments of the business population — for-profit and nonprofit — obtain a Master Business License if the business generates $2,000 or more in gross receipts. The law puts no limits on age or business activity type. The grace period for obtaining a Master Business License was recently extended by the DC Council to May 31, 2003. In addition, new Master Business License fees went into effect on January 7, 2003. The new fees are $35 for the Master Business License and $10 for each endorsement. The renewal fee will remain the same at $15. Visit DCRA to read the entire press release. For information on the MBLR program, visit MBLR or contact the MBL Info Center at (202) 442-4311.
