Any person doing business in the unincorporated area of the County of Greenville must register annually with the County. No person shall be engaged in or carry on any business as described in § 21-3 unless the business is properly registered with the County. If business is conducted at more than 1 location or place, each such location or place shall be considered a separate business upon which a separate business registration will be required. One registration is required for each separate business location. Persons working for a registered business are not required to maintain a separate registration with the County. The Business Registration form shall contain the federal employer’s identification number and/or social security number, the South Carolina SID or retail license number if applicable, and the business name and address as reported on the South Carolina income tax return.
Every business or person who registers with the County must sign an affidavit, on a form designated by the County or prescribed by the South Carolina Illegal Immigration Reform Act, being S.C. Code, Title 41, Ch. 8, attesting under penalty of perjury that the business and/or person is in compliance with the S.C. Illegal Immigration Reform Act and does not knowingly or intentionally employ any person who is an unauthorized alien.
Upon the receipt of credible, specific information concerning a potential violation of the South Carolina Illegal Immigration Reform Act, the Department of General Services shall forward such information to the South Carolina Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation for further investigation pursuant to state law.
