Smithfield Annual Business Registration Renewal
Dear Smithfield Business Owner,
The Town of Smithfield values your presence as a member of our business community. We also strive to achieve clarity and transparency in our relationship with residents and business proprietors alike by assisting you in understanding and maintaining compliance with local statute.
Town Ordinance Chapter 236 Article III requires the owner of each business situated in the Town of Smithfield to renew their Business Registration Certificate with the Tax Collector’s Office on an annual basis. This requirement helps the Town maintain up to date records on businesses operating locally in accordance with state law, and also assists us in providing a level playing field for business proprietors with regards to licensing and taxation. You can read the ordinance at the following web address: http://www.ecode360.com/8256267
Please follow these steps in order to renew your Business Registration Certificate for this year:

2) COMPLETE AND SUBMIT THE RENEWAL FORM BELOW BY DECEMBER 31ST
Please complete all required fields before submitting. Businesses not registered by December 31st may incur a penalty of $25 per month.
