Do I get a sales tax ID or a wholesalers certificate?
Answer: Hi Stacy, You do Need A California Sales Tax Permit that comes with a wholesaler's certificate also called a resale certificate. The sales tax ID is the same as a seller's permit. You need the sales tax ID because you will be selling wholesale and you need to keep track of your sales as well when you sell retail, you need to charge sales tax. Fees: the fees are $49 for most states, and yes, you need a business license. In fact, here is what Licensing you Need in . First you need the LLC certificate. Also, you can get your Resale License here online. Regardless of you sell clothing or other types of merchandise, licensing for you business require that you get a wholesale license AKA seller's permit and getting a business license because all businesses need these 2 filings plus more depending on your specific situation.
In your case, buying 5 items at $10 each wholesale saves you $4 because @ 8% sales tax, that is how much you save. Nevertheless, you still need to collect the 8% when selling the items.
Also, let's say you sell 10 items at $5 per item, total $50 plus $4 sales tax, you need to charge $54.
In addition, because you are using an assumed business name, also called a DBA (doing business as name) namely, "Sincerely Her Boutique," is required to be registered with a DBA doing business as certificate, an LLC or a corporation. |
