Summary

People who run a business that must pay a special tax must register with the Secretary. They must give their name or business name, home address, type of business, and the address where the business will operate. If the business is a firm or company, it must list each person in it and their home addresses. Anyone excused from paying the special tax under section 4905 must still register, following the rules the Secretary sets.
