How do I apply for a business license?

Sussex County government does not issue business licenses. Licenses are issued through both the Delaware Division of Revenue and local municipalities (for those businesses located in incorporated cities and towns). Check with your local municipality to verify what requirements exist. To contact the Delaware Division of Revenue, call (302) 856-5358.
