State Permits & Licensing
The State of Wisconsin does not issue "general business licenses" or "small business licenses"; however, the State of Wisconsin does regulate many occupations and businesses that have to meet specific legal, educational and examination requirements. Some entities that assist in oversee these requirements and regulations are:
- Department of Financial Institutions is the filing office for organizations to form entities
- Department of Safety and Professional Services provides business licences and permits
- Wisconsin Department of Revenue provides tax registration
