Welcome to the Business Service Center Online Calculator and Renewal for business license fees and Local Accommodations taxes.

The screens that follow allow users to: (1) calculate your business license fee, (2) print the online renewal form to mail in, and (3) pay online and receive a $10 discount.

You need to contact the Business Service Center at 803-576-2287 or bsc@richlandcountysc.gov if:
(1) You are opening a new business,
(2) You are obtaining or renewing your first business license,
(3) You want to reopen a closed business,
(4) Section 5 of the renewal form applies to your business (so we may provide you with that license number), or
(5) Your business has had a change of location, ownership, or business activity in the last year.

The deadline for renewing business licenses without penalties is April 30.

Please enter your Business ID and LocationID.
(These are the two-part business license number (or account number), which can be found on the first page of the pre-printed renewal form or on the business license itself.)
