A vendor's license authorizes a business to engage in tangible retail sales and charge sales tax. A license is required for each location of operation within the county. All applications must have a street address; P.O. Boxes cannot be accepted. A sole owner is required to furnish their social security number or federal tax identification number.

If the company is a corporation, LLC or LP, list the Ohio Corporate Charter number, Ohio Foreign License number or Articles of Organization number issued by Ohio's Secretary of State. Also needed are the names and addresses of the corporate officers.

The fee for a vendor license (ST-1) is $25 and check or money order should be made payable to Kristen M. Scalise CPA, CFE, Summit County Fiscal Officer.
