One-Stop-Shop for Businesses and Entrepreneurs

Connecticut’s business registration system has recently been upgraded and integrated with Business.CT.gov, the state’s one-stop-shop for businesses and entrepreneurs to navigate state government requirements.

Here are a few ways business owners and entrepreneurs can effectively and quickly do business with the state through the portal.

Starting a business: A customized checklist tool will guide users through the steps to start a new business in Connecticut.

Registering new employees: Learn what steps to take after making a new hire.

Managing licenses and permits: Stay compliant with licenses and permits. 

Paying taxes: Stay current with all business tax needs and changes.

Find business assistance: Discover available state business loans and grants. 

As Secretary of the State Denise Merrill said, “Starting a business comes with several risks and inherent challenges. Registering should not be one of them.” The improved site is meant to ensure that’s the case.
