Does the online shop need a business license?

You need a license. First, you need to register as the subject. Many people don't need to apply for a business license because online stores are convenient. However, the new regulations require that e-commerce operators should apply for business licenses like physical stores, except for the following situations (individuals selling agricultural products and household handicrafts, individuals using skills to engage in convenient labor activities and sporadic small-scale transactions, without obtaining permission according to law). If they don't apply, once they are found, they will be fined up to 500,000 yuan. Second, tax registration is required, which means that e-commerce also needs to pay taxes according to law. The regulations stipulate: "E-commerce operators should record and keep the information of goods and services on the platform, and the transaction information should be no less than 3 years from the date of completion of the transaction." This requires e-commerce operators to make good accounts and file tax returns according to regulations. In other words, opening an online store also requires a business license. However, there are the following exceptions:

1. Individuals open online stores to sell self-produced agricultural and sideline products.

2. There is also a person who opens a shop online to sell cottage products.

3. If you have a skill and help others with your own skill, you don't need to apply for a license for the convenience labor activities that only sell technical support and provide services.

4. Individuals open online stores to do sporadic small transactions.

5. Other circumstances in which registration is not required by laws and administrative regulations. Third, it is forbidden to illegally brush or delete comments, which means that e-commerce businesses need to truly show their evaluation of product sales, and hiring navy to brush sales and praise will be prohibited. According to the provisions of the E-Commerce Law: "It is also illegal to delete comments, especially negative comments. Operators of e-commerce platforms may not delete consumers' comments on goods sold or services provided by their platforms. "

At present, there are two situations about whether a business license is needed. First, if you are an individual seller, then you don't need a business license. This is also one of the reasons why Taobao is easy to open a shop at present. Second, if an enterprise wants to open a shop in Taobao, it needs to show its business license in the enterprise certification stage of Taobao, which means that the enterprise store mainly displays its business license information in Taobao shop for Taobao buyers to check. Second, if the Taobao buyer has a business license in a physical store, but has passed the personal verification link on Taobao, the Taobao seller does not need to display his business license information at this time. Regarding the information about whether to pay taxes, whether it is an individual online store or an enterprise online store, there is no need to pay taxes for the time being, and relevant policies are being adjusted.
