Opening a business in Collierville

From the town’s business license page:

1. Inside town limits: complete the town’s Business Tax License application and the police and fire emergency contact form, with a copy of the owner’s driver’s license (not needed for a corporation), and pay the application fee by cash or check to the Town of Collierville.
2. Finance sends the application to Planning, Codes and Fire to confirm zoning allows the use and whether permits or inspections are needed, then mails the license.
3. Get a Shelby County business tax license (901-222-3059) and register with the Tennessee Department of Revenue, which collects the yearly town and county business tax returns on TNTAP.

Home businesses and contractors: under $3,000 in yearly gross receipts, no town or county license is required; from $3,000 to $100,000, a minimal activity license, with a $15 yearly fee to the town and the home occupation compliance questionnaire. Out-of-state contractors grossing under $100,000 in Collierville a year do not need the town or county license.
