Who issues licenses to contractors that are doing business outside the county and/or city where they are domiciled?

City staff is responsible for issuing the business tax license if the contractor is doing business within the City. Contractors living outside Tennessee with no state business location must have a state business account number to report sales in counties where sales fall between $10,000 and $50,000. They must also obtain a Sullivan County license if they have a business location in the County where sales exceed $50,000. They also must obtain a City business license if the contractor has $50,000 or more in sales for the tax reporting period.
