Starting, Changing or Closing a Business

Step 1 – Gather Information

  • A good place to start is on the State of Utah’s Business Information page.
  • The links below give detailed information, especially related to taxes.
  • You might need to also contact other state or federal government agencies, or your local city.

Step 2 – Register Your Business

OneStop Business Registration (OSBR) system is shut down – Effective September 12, 2024

The Department of Commerce (Division of Corporations and Commercial Code) will permanently shut down the OneStop Business Registration (OSBR) system on Thursday, September 12, 2024. At that time, the public may no longer use OSBR to register a business with the Utah State Tax Commission and apply for a tax account/license.

With the shutting down of OSBR, the Department of Commerce will be going live with their own and new business registration system on Monday, September 16.
