Revises provisions relating to businesses. (BDR 51-890)
AB 352 creates a new licensing system for small home-based businesses selling cosmetics and food in Nevada, directly affecting individuals who make and sell these products from their homes. It exempts cottage cosmetics operations (with annual sales under $100,000) from full state licensing requirements but requires them to apply for a state license, pay fees, and register with the Department of Agriculture. Similarly, it revises rules for cottage food operations (also capped at $100,000 annual sales), allowing online/in-person sales and requiring state licensing instead of local health authority registration. The bill also increases the sales cap for craft food operations from $35,000 to $100,000 annually and includes federal compliance requirements for child support checks.
