Essential Business Request

If a company is uncertain if they are essential, they may make an essential business request with the NC Dept. of Revenue here: https://www.ncdor.gov/home/ncdor-actions-covid-19/covid-19-essential-businesses. If a company made a previous request to be considered an essential business through BEOC it is not valid and they must start again. Again, a company must ask with the new process in the essential business link above if the company is not sure and wants to get an official State decision.
