Any felony convictions related to theft, fraud, or financial crimes may disqualify you from receiving a license.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Business Location<\/strong>: You need a <strong>physical location<\/strong> for your dealership that complies with local zoning laws. This location must include an office and space for displaying vehicles.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Liability Insurance<\/strong>: Proof of liability insurance is necessary to protect both your business and customers.<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-2-register-your-business\"><strong>Step 2: Register Your Business<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you meet the eligibility requirements, you must officially register your business:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Register with the<strong> <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sos.idaho.gov\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Idaho Secretary of State<\/strong><\/a>: This is necessary for all businesses operating in Idaho.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Obtain an Employer Identification Number (EIN)<\/strong>: You\u2019ll need an EIN from the IRS for tax purposes.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sales Tax Permit<\/strong>: Apply for a sales tax permit with the <a href=\"https:\/\/tax.idaho.gov\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Idaho State Tax Commission<\/strong><\/a>.
