| Whether you provide a mobile service or you sell a product, you will need a business license. In some cities you may have to be fingerprinted as well. A mobile seller is a street vendor of merchandise that can be easily transported; he is like a peddler or costermonger. In most states where the term is used, a hawker or street vendor sells items or food that are native to the area but it could be flowers, food, or merchandise. Whether stationary or mobile, hawkers usually advertise by loud street cries or chants, and conduct banter with customers, so to attract attention and enhance sales. When accompanied by a demonstration and/or detailed explanation of the product, the hawker is sometimes referred to as a demonstrator or pitchman who normally work for a company.

VENDING CART, You will need to get a retail food business license ... On the other hand, you will still need a sellers permit and a DBA certificate. Most food product will be sold in carts in public locations, such as school events, cinemas, stadiums. It is similar to the hot dog cart or popcorn cart. Will prepare the food and fill it in the cart as orders and payments are received. Could also sell the product to cafeterias, cafe, and restaurants as a supplier or cater at customers homes.

After you decide and select your business entity, you need licensing.
Brownsville Business Tax Registration (

fictitious business name.

In addition note that in
TN
you may also need a seller's permit if you sell merchandise that is taxable.
(A.K.A state id, wholesale, resale,
reseller certificate, about $39 for most states).
Seller's Permit
Note: All businesses need a federal tax ID number except sole proprietors that are not employers and are not independent contractors.
An independent contractor is a self employed business person that receives more than $600 per year from anyone of his or her clients.
IRS rule: The client must issue a 1099 form to the independent contractor and the independent contractor must have a federal tax ID.
However, even sole owners may obtain a federal ID and use it as a business tax ID instead of using their own social security number as a
business tax ID number.
However, all other licenses that apply to sole proprietors as discussed here are requited regardless of getting
a federal tax ID number.
Also keep in mind that employers will need to obtain a federal EIN and a State EIN tax identificattion number.
I.e., a TN Federal Tax Id Number ($29) and a(n) TN State Employer Tax Number
Instead of filing a fictitious business name DBA Filing (about $49 plus state and legal newspaper publication fees) in
Brownsville, Incorporate in TN or form a(n) TN LLC .
Filing a DBA is not required if you will set up an LLC or form a Corporation.
There is a cicrcumstance that you may not need to register a trade name and that is when you use your full name as a business name if you use your full legal name as a trade name.
Using any language that connotes additional owners in the name of the business makes filing a fictitious business name mandatory.
If you do form an Automotive llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Mobile Mechanic business instead of just filing a fictitious business name (dba),
that insurs that you don't have personal liability for debts and civile liabililty arising from your business dealings and you will not have to record the Brownsville business name.
Instead of just registering your Haywood County assumed business name (our fee includes assumed business name registration and legal newspaper publication) you can choose to setup a corporation in
TN or form an TN LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes bylaws for the corporation and Limited Liability operating agreement for the LLC that is required to open a business bank account). .
