ACQUIRING AN EXISTING BUSINESS OR CHANGING TYPE OF LEGAL BUSINESS ENTITY
If you buy an existing business, or change your business entity, Idaho law requires you to withhold enough of the purchase money to pay any sales tax and, in most cases, unemployment insurance due or unpaid by the previous owner/entity until the previous owner/entity produces a receipt from the Idaho Department of Labor and the Idaho State Tax Commission showing the taxes have been paid. If you fail to withhold the required purchase money and the taxes remain due and unpaid after the business is sold or converted to another entity type, you may be liable for the payment of the taxes collected or unpaid by the former owner/entity. When there is a change in the legal entity, you must notify your workers’ compensation insurance company.

PUBLICATION CONSENT

This will increase visibility of my business to a larger pool of job applicants, will allow my business to be included when the Department of Labor responds to questions about the availability of products and services in the community, and expand the opportunity for additional sales. I acknowledge the Idaho Department of Labor’s files will be accessed to obtain my company name, address, phone number, NAICS (industry) code and range of employment.
