FAQ
All businesses operating in the City of Fairfax must apply for an annual license with the Commissioner of the Revenue. Business license taxes are levied annually and are typically based on a business's gross receipts. All new businesses must submit an application within 30 days of the start of operations.
Who needs a Virginia contractor license? Compared to other states, Virginia's contractor license requirements are generally straightforward. Anyone performing or managing a project — or removing, repairing, or improving a project valued in excess of $1,000 — requires a license.
$10,001- $50,000: $30. $50,001- $100,000: $50. For gross receipts or gross purchases that exceed $100,000, the BPOL tax rate is applied. These rates depend upon the nature of the business, as laid out in the BPOL Ordinance (Fairfax County Code, Section 4-7.2).
Each Virginia city and county establishes its own licensing requirements and procedures. But, most counties and cities require the appropriate Virginia business licenses or permits for all businesses, including one-person, home-based operations.
When and How to Apply for a Business License. All business owners, including owners of home-based businesses, are subject to the BPOL tax. Business owners are required to register their business with the Department of Tax Administration (DTA) within 75 days of beginning business operations in Fairfax County.
Section 4-7.2-1. (B) Gross receipts do not include revenues that are attributable to taxable business activity conducted in another jurisdiction within the Commonwealth of Virginia and the volume attributable to that business activity is deductible pursuant to Code of Virginia Sections 58.1-3708 and 58.1-3709.
Do I need to obtain a contractor's license for every county/city in which I perform work? Yes, if that locality has a business license tax. (State and Counties/Cities are governed by separate regulations). Since each locality sets their own tax rates (not to exceed the State limits) the business license tax will vary.
The license approves your engagement in a specific business in a certain jurisdiction; an LLC provides an official, legally-recognized business entity. Forming an LLC effectively makes your business a company rather than a sole proprietorship.
