> Can you run a business in your country without a license from the govt? As far as I know, businesses don’t require general licences to operate in the United Kingdom. Licences for certain activities that have an environmental impact may be necessary (significant use of water, potential pollution of air / ground / water, dangerous material handling). |

My brother runs a mon-n-pop store, selling stationery items.
Getting a business license took 1 day, one application and renewed every year online. Cost is about 10 USD per year.
I know many in my neighborhood that don't even have that.
Majority of the retailers have a simple license, usually obtained very quickly from local municipal corporation.
I can start a company for consulting, trade, retail, etc, with the help of a legal counsel and a bit of paperwork in about a couple of weeks.
