Gwinnett County, Georgia

Duluth websites for Gwinnett home-service pros

Duluth zip codes 30096 and 30097 don't guarantee you're in the city. If you are, you need one city certificate and nothing from Gwinnett County.

Check the city line first

Duluth's application has three parts, all online: a business zoning and use verification, then a business information form in the city's GovBuilt system, then the occupation tax application once Planning approves. The city says zoning and use must be approved before you sign a lease.

Two zip codes carry Duluth mailing addresses but may sit outside city limits, so the city asks you to check its street listing. Inside the city, one Occupational Tax Certificate covers you and you don't need a Gwinnett County certificate. Your NAICS code sets both your zoning use and your tax class. New applications generally take 10 to 14 business days, and January-to-April renewal season can slow that.

Renewals are due January 30 and become delinquent after April 30. You submit proof of gross receipts. Professionals designated by the Secretary of State may pay $400 per practitioner plus one administrative fee per business.
