About each permit

County Merchant's License

The county's Licenses and Applications page states: "A County Merchant's License is required if you are selling certain products in Jefferson County (RSMo. 150.010)." It also states: "If your business is 'service only' a Merchant's License is not required," so the record applies only to a business that sells products. The page lists "Merchant's Fee - $25.00", and the Collector's application asks applicants to enclose the $25.00 Merchant License fee. The application requires a sales tax number and workers' compensation verification (construction businesses with one or more employees, other businesses with five or more), and an applicant who is not a county resident files a notarized affidavit. The application states that "Licenses can not be issued if there are delinquent Personal Property & Real Estate Taxes due," consistent with Ordinance 10-0411, and that the Merchant's License does not exempt the holder from other county permits such as zoning, occupancy and building permits and liquor licenses.
