I have a business in Florida and would like to sell soap on Etsy. My question is: Can I use my business name for payment processing, but use a different shop name that is more in keeping with my products?

Business Registration

For your artisan soap business operated from home and selling online and to the public, you'll likely need to register your business entity. This typically involves choosing a business structure and registering your business name.

Licenses and Permits

Several licenses and permits may be required for your soap-making business:

General business license

Home occupation permit

Sales tax permit

Employer Identification Number (if applicable)

Product-Specific Requirements

As you're manufacturing soap, you may need to comply with specific regulations:

Cosmetic product registration

Product labeling compliance

Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) certification

Whether a soap online, home, store, concession stand or a mobile owner/proprietor, partnership, LCS or corporation/proprietor, partnership, LLC or corporation, all of which also require a General Business License (not a specific license for your type of business) as well. If your trade name is a business name other than your full personal legal name, you will need to file a DBA.
