Operating a business must be made legal. There are business permits to comply that would match with tax payables. No one can escape the law. It is also important to note that ignorance of the law excuses no one. Lawsuits, fines, or penalties can impose significant financial strain on a business often resulting in losses especially if it becomes unmanageable due to penalties because of not following the laws intended for businesses. Failure to adapt to legalities by industry or business can cause disruptions that may lead to financial distress. It is better to abide the laws.
