New Jersey's Online Business and Employer Registration

Welcome to New Jersey's online Business and Employer Registration Service.

You may use this streamlined service to file for Business Taxes. Please note that your browser must be the most current version. Please see FAQs for any questions.

When should I use this application?

  • When you have already formed/authorized your business in NJ and need to register for tax purposes
  • When you are looking to start a Sole Proprietorship or Partnership

You should use the Online Formations application instead if:

  • You want to start a new legal business entity (LLC, Corporation, Limited Partnership etc.) in NJ
  • You need to authorize a legal entity in NJ for your business in another state

Please use the green Get Started button, to complete your Registration filing. Once you finish each section it will be marked with a check mark.
