Doing business in Weber County
Weber County centers on Ogden, Weber State University and the manufacturing and aerospace employers along the northern Wasatch Front. Its average establishment is larger than most, so payroll registration with the Department of Workforce Services and the Tax Commission often comes right after formation.
Weber County ranks #5 of Utah's 29 counties by establishments: 7,433 in 2024 with 121,786 jobs, or 16.4 jobs per establishment. Average pay of $58,684 sits below the roughly $66,894 average across the state.
The county clerk's office is in Ogden. In Utah the county clerk does not form companies or register DBAs; both are statewide filings with the Division of Corporations. The combined sales tax in unincorporated Weber County is 7.45 percent in the fourth quarter of 2026, which includes the 4.85 percent state rate, and cities inside the county can be higher. Businesses outside city limits get their local business license from the county; inside a city, from that city.
