County officials said the new system helps them and the public “go green” and be more efficient.
“The saving of gas, time and mileage by not having to come to us in person will result in a better bottom line for businesses and the public,” said Carl Simmons, building inspections director.
Charleston County officials expect to offer additional online services in the future, including plan submission and review.
“This is part of a continuing effort by Charleston County government to improve service delivery to the public,” said Dan Pennick, planning department director.
Citizens can search and renew business licenses online for the municipalities of North Charleston, Awendaw, McClellanville, Rockville, Lincolnville and Folly Beach, as well as unincorporated areas within Charleston County.
