<human>:  I am thinking of starting a business. What permits do I need before I can do it?
<bot>: You will need to check with your local government for specific permits and guidelines related to the type of business you are considering to ensure you are able to legally start a business. You may need to obtain a business license, which is typically required to be installed to operate a business, as well as any other permits or authorizations required by your local government or state. Additionally, you may need to obtain permits related to zoning regulations and health codes.
