二、经营许可证是营业执照吗

二者不能等同。

根据法律规定，营业执照是法律主体进行市场交易主体资格的法定证明，目前有法人类营业执照、个人独资企业营业执照、合伙企业营业执照和个体工商户营业执照等；营业执照由工商局颁发，每年年检。而经营许可证，是法律规定的某些行业必须经过许可，而由主管部门办法的许可经营的证明，如烟草专卖许可等。营业执照是每个开门做生意的经营者都需要办理的证件，没有这个证件，就是无照经营行为，是违法的。经营许可证是做某种方面的生意所必须取得的证件，这个证件必须在办理营业执照之前取得，也就是所谓的前置许可审批文件，例如卖烟的话，需要在办营业执照之前取得《烟草零售经营许可证》，卖食品需要在办营业执照之前取得《食品流通许可证》，开饭店，搞餐饮服务的，需要在办营业执照之前取得《餐饮经营许可证》，不一而就。
