Ohio’s Vendor’s License Fee to Increase

by | 28 May | Ohio Department of Taxation

On April 9, vendor licenses will increase from $25 to $50.

The change is due to the passage of HB 366, to support the Organized Crime Commission Fund.

This fee increase will impact both county vendors and transient vendors’ licenses.

A vendor license is required for any person or business with a fixed place of business in Ohio from which taxable sales are made. Vendors must have one license for each fixed place of business. The County Auditor issues the license.

Transient vendors are retailers who transport stock of goods to temporary places of business in order to make sales. The license is issued by the Department of Taxation and is valid throughout the state.
