Registering an LLC is just the start. You need an EIN, a separate business bank account, and an operating agreement. Depending on your business type and location, you may also need federal, state, or county licenses or permits.

Simply registering an LLC does not mean that you can officially do business. There are several steps that you should take after registering the LLC, such as getting an EIN number, opening up a bank account, and getting an operating agreement. But in addition to those, you may also need to get various licenses and permits with the federal government, the state, and sometimes even your county. These licenses and permits are especially important if you have a retail location or a physical office space. If your business is entirely online, then Oftentimes you don't need these licenses, but it's still important to check with your state and county. A good resource for determining which licenses and permits are needed would be the SBA government website, the Small Business Association website, or there are also third-party companies that can do a thorough search for your business to determine which licenses are needed.
