The idea of needing a licence to run any business seems absurd to me. In Australia, you need to register for an Australian Business Number, but that&#x27;s for tax purposes, and it&#x27;s cheap and easy to do online. Even forming a corporation costs less than $500 and a few days waiting. (literally - it&#x27;s 2 days after the government receives the application form)<p>There are restrictions around certain trades (electricians, doctors, etc), but they&#x27;re the exception, not the rule.
