New licensing partnership blooms in Skagit Valley - Burlington!

On the fertile north bank of the Skagit River, a new partner in the state Business Licensing Service is budding with potential.

The new link for the city of Burlington will streamline license requirements for hundreds of local businesses, many of which prepare for tulip tourism traffic each spring. Skagit County neighbors Anacortes, Mount Vernon, and Sedro Woolley also connect to BLS, the state's signature combined licensing service.

For all of April, the famous tulip brings visitors from around the world
through Burlington to see the bounty of colors in the pastoral fields.

This month, Burlington is hosting thousands of flora fawners during the annual Skagit Valley Tulip Festival. Now, businesses serving the visitors can save time with the online service solution that ties local licensing requirements to their existing state tax accounts. 

Welcome to BLS, city of Burlington!

Tulips and related floral sales are
a big part of the Burling tourism economy.
