Doing Business in California Just Got
Easier with eReg
BOE Launches eReg
(Electronic Registration) Service
Sacramento – Starting or
doing business in California just got easier with eReg, the Board of
Equalization's (BOE) new secure electronic registration system, announced
Jerome E. Horton, Chairman of the State Board of Equalization (BOE)
today. The user-friendly service offers a convenient, fast, and free way
to apply online for a permit, license, or account.
"eReg is just one more way
the BOE is using innovative technology to make it easier to start and conduct
business in California," said Chairman Horton. "Helping
businesses to succeed and getting them started quickly and efficiently is vital
for California's economic health."
Beginning June 18,
2012, users can access eReg from the BOE's secure website – any time day or
night – to apply for a seller's permit, pay use tax, and register for other tax
and fee programs. Answer a few simple questions and the system works to
guide the user through the process of getting the permits, licenses, or
accounts needed. If users don’t have time to finish the application
process, it’s no problem – they can save their application and return later to
finish it.
In addition, eReg allows you to:
- Register
for a special tax or fee account such as International Fuel Tax Agreement
(IFTA) accounts and Cigarette and Tobacco Products
Retailer's Licenses
- Add
a new business location
- Easily
make use tax payments
- View
the status of your account(s) online
- Access
helpful reference materials, forms, and publications
From mobile applications to
online seminars, the tools you need to help your business succeed are just a
click away.
