Simpsonville websites for Greenville County pros
Simpsonville no longer takes business license applications or renewals by mail; everything starts in its online portal.
Online only
Simpsonville is in Greenville County, and new licenses and renewals both go through the city's online portal in three steps. New applicants open the New Account tab; renewing businesses enter their Application ID. Mailed applications and renewals are no longer accepted. The city's quick links include step-by-step Business License Instructions, and the portal lets you handle licensing without leaving your office or job site.
After you submit, staff process the license and send an invoice, payable by check, cash or credit card. Moved, changed owners or closed? Email the Business License office with your Application ID and the update. City contacts are (864) 967-9526 and [email protected], and the renewal center lists the office at 425 E. Curtis Street.
Rates follow your NAICS class and gross income. For 2026-2027, Class 1 started at $60 for the first $1,000 plus $0.90 per $1,000 above that, and a business located outside the city paid double. The state renewal center notes that late penalties don't apply to businesses physically outside city limits.
Every license expires April 30. Under Act 176 and the state renewal center, the 5% penalty starts May 1 and rises 5% a month, reaching 50% by February 2027. Food truck owners should download and read the city's Food Truck Vendor Guide on local rules before setting up.
