[QUOTE="Phantasm, post: 2313, member: 182"] Below are the legal requirements that you need to consider when starting an internet-based business, as a lot of people do not know these requirements. 1. It is important to register your name as a trademark, and make sure that it's protected. 2. Register for an appropriate business license with any applicable authorities. 3. Ensure that you have the knowledge on how to collect personal information from consumers to use in connection with a commercial transaction and their consent if necessary. 4. If you are hiring employees, you will have to register with the appropriate government agencies. 5. Ensure that your website is compliant with all applicable laws. 6. If your business is internet-based, your product may be considered an imported good, so make sure to comply with trade and customs regulations. 7. If applicable, make sure that you are registered for whatever your area's equivalent of VAT is (assuming you'll be selling goods or services across borders). The main requirement for this is that you get prior written consent from the government agency as to what kind of goods/services you'll be supplying (i.e., jurisdiction-specific limitations). 8. Once again, make sure you comply with all applicable laws without fail. 9. Ensure that you have all the relevant licenses (if any) for your business, and ensure that all necessary permits are on hand so that you can conduct business. 10. You may even want to consider using a legal services provider, who will help you to comply with the above requirements and any other legal advice or matters that you would need to inform yourself of while running your internet business. 11. Finally, if applicable, make sure you read up on all relevant laws before starting up because doing so will help to save time in the future when things come up. [/QUOTE]
