Carroll County, Georgia

Villa Rica websites for west Georgia service crews

In Villa Rica you need a city certificate even without a storefront: soliciting or delivering inside city limits counts. Every certificate expires December 31.

Delivering here counts

Villa Rica is a west Georgia city that spans Carroll County and Douglas County, and its Community Development Department runs an Occupational Tax/Alcohol Division that issues certificates. Every business in the city applies for one and renews it annually; licenses expire on December 31 each year.

Unless state law exempts you, a certificate is required if you keep a business location inside Villa Rica city limits, solicit business there, or pick up or deliver goods or services there. That last test matters for mobile trades: a crew based elsewhere that services Villa Rica customers falls under the same rule. If you run more than one type of business, each needs its own occupational tax.

Home-based businesses use the same application, and the city's Home Occupation Ordinance also applies. Tell Community Development about any change of ownership or location. The city's application packet, home occupation affidavit and private employer affidavit are posted on its checklists and forms page.
