① When filling in the "Place of Business" column of the "Registration Book for Individual Business Owners", the platform name and location should be filled in. If the applicant is engaged in business on multiple platforms, multiple locations should be filled in to verify the situation.

② It is necessary to clearly state in the commitment that "I promise to conduct business only through the Internet and not to change the use of the house for production activities without authorization" and sign.

③ To apply for a self-employed business name, you must follow the relevant regulations on name registration. Therefore, many names that can be used online may not be usable. It is recommended to choose a name according to the requirements, so that it will be easier to pass the registration.

④ Proof of venue use refers to the proof of name, ID number, venue website and other information, which shows that the applicant is using the venue legally. You can obtain and print it out from the platform and then submit it to the relevant department.

⑤ As the registration unit needs to be determined based on the residence, migrant workers are also required to provide a residence permit or temporary residence permit and apply for it according to the corresponding town or street.

This is also a point to pay attention to when applying for the certificate. Everyone needs to be clear about it when applying. If you have any questions, you can also consult the local certificate processing staff and you will get more detailed answers.

If you want to apply for a cross-border e-commerce business license, you need to make an appointment with the competent department, then prepare the materials, submit the materials for review, and wait for the certificate to be issued. The method for applying for a cross-border license is the same as the requirements for applying for a daily license. If you want to do cross-border business, then this license is a must.
