We are selling product at the swap meet in 90630 cypress, CA. Do we need a tax I’d number? We do not collect taxes on our product.
     


    A: Hi Suzzy,  Answer: You need to collect taxes.  Starting Your Swap Meet  Business And Selling Online Licensing Required and it is discussed below:

There are thousands of swap meets in the United States generating income in the billions but each business operating in the swap meet must be licensed.  

Swap Meet Licensing



Sales Tax Permit



Some swap meets are about retail businesses, so sales tax is involved.  I.e., you need to collect taxes when making a sale.  Some swap meets collect taxes when you sell your merchandise at the swap meet but 99% of swap meets require you to obtain your own sales permit so you can buy wholesale from wholesalers and then sell retail at the swap meet. You can obtain this license here - it is called a seller's permit.



Swap Meet Business License

  

  First is a business license and before issuing a business license, the government considers your location, number of employees, type of business and gross annual income as well as you need  to obtain a seller's permit so you can buy your Swap Meet Store wholesale.



90630  For example, if you start a swap meet in Orange County, 9063, CA  and want to buy the items wholesale. To buy wholesale, you  will need to obtain a seller's permit.



The seller's permit includes a resale certificate that you will  fill out, sign and fax or email to the wholesaler so you can prove to the wholesaler that you  have a seller's permit ID number.



  So, for instance, if you  buy 10  Gift Baskets Store Materials for $1.00 each, you  would have to pay $10 plus sales tax but since you  buy wholesale you buy tax free  paying only $10 instead of assuming the state tax is about 7% tax, $10.70.



   As is the case with all businesses, you  will also need to obtain a business license.   In addition, the assumed business name "Home Source," is a fictitious business name and is required to be registered with a DBA, LLC or Corporation.



   Finally, if you are an employer, you will have to obtain 2 tax IDs: a federal EIN and a State EIN.


     




Selling   used stuff  in a swap meat   requires a sellers permit because you need to collect taxes when you sell them.  Sales taxes that is.  

   Of course, any business  needs to be a sole owner, corporation or LLC.  

   If you do not choose to become an LLC, you will need to register your business name especially if it is a name without your first and last name in it.

   First, select your  used stuff  business structure: Sole Proprietor, Partnership, LLC or Corporation.

   Then, a sellers permit is required if you sell merchandise wholesale or retail.

   If you are an employer, you will need a federal employer Number and a State Employer Number.

   Users of a trade name will need a fictitious business name filing. Finally, you have the option or incorporating or forming an  used stuff   LLC.

  "The beauty of the free market is that everyone gets what they want. With governmentally imposed systems, it is always one size fits all. Roger Ver    Selling at the Flea Market

          Even though things look relaxed at the flea market, your duties are not. You will need to comply 100% with the legal licensing requirements.  

          So, first, select your Flea Market Business business structure: Like all businesses, you can choose from a Sole Proprietor, Partnership, LLC or Corporation.

          Choosing the business legal structure is important because all tax IDs and other legal documents are filed under the type of legal structure.  

          It makes a big difference filing as a sole owner and filing as an LLC, for example.

          Then, a seller's permit is required if you sell flea market merchandise wholesale or retail.

          In fact, most of the items sold at a flea market, even food is taxable so you need a seller's permit.

          Now let us say you hire a couple of guys to help you sell stuff at the flea market.

          If so, you will be considered an employer and  you will need a federal employer Number and a State Employer Number.

          Users of a trade name will need a fictitious business name filing.

          Finally, even if you are just a sole owner, and a small business, you have the option or incorporating or forming an LLC.  If you do, you will not have to file a DBA.  



IF I am having a flea market weekly on my property that I have a license for, do I need a flea market license  
     


   A:  IF I have a flea market weekly on my property that I have a license for, do I need a flea market license ?  Yes,  you will need at least 2 license permits: A business license, and a seller's permit.   In addition, since "Tips Tees " is an assumed business name, you will need to register it with a DBA, LLC or corporation.    

In Ezel City, the requirements for a Flea Market are the same as anywhere in the U.S.

You will need the seller's permit to buy Flea Market Store materials such as the  Flea Market and other  items wholesale.



    If you are a partnership, an LLC or corporation or even an independent sole owner contractor, you will also need an federal EIN. Finally, if you will hire anytime soon, you will need a State EIN.

  • In Goldsboro, North Carolina, if you plan to sell items at a flea market, there are specific permits and registrations you’ll need to obtain.

     


    Let’s break it down:

    Business Registration: Before engaging in retail sales at specialty markets or other events.

     


    This certificate confirms your business’s legitimacy and allows you to collect and remit sales and use tax.

     


     There is no fee for applying, and once received, you should conspicuously display the certificate or a confirmation of application.

     


    Sales and Use Tax: As a seller at flea markets, you’ll be responsible for collecting and remitting sales and use tax.

     


    The general state rate is 4.75%, but local and transit rates may vary based on the sale’s location.

     


    For food sales, there’s a 2% tax rate, while prepared food falls under the general state rate.

     


    Make sure to understand your tax obligations.

     


    Other Tax Obligations: Depending on your specific situation, you may have additional tax responsibilities.

     


    If you’re participating in a vapor show, review the FAQs regarding excise tax on consumable vapor products.


     


     Additionally, if you attend a single event in North Carolina within a calendar year for retail sales, you must register and obtain a Certificate of Registration.

    You can choose to be a(n) Flea Market :

    • Sole Proprietor,
    • LLC,
    • Corporation or
    • Partnership.
      After you decide and select your business entity, you need licensing.



    Prattville Business Tax Registration ( Business License)
    All businesses including home, online or mobile BUSINESS need a BUSINESS license because they are BUSINESSES.



    A(n) Flea Market business doing business under an assumed business name in Autauga County i.e. you are a business that uses a DBA doing business as trade name to trade that is other than the full legal (first and last -- full name) name of a sole proprietor or a name other than the LLC or Corporation business name need a(n) assumed business name certificate.   E.g. you venture into a(n) Flea Market business and you give it a trade name such as "Excellence Flea Market & Associates". You will need to register an assumed business name certificate.

    In addition note that in AL you may also need a seller's permit if you sell merchandise that is taxable.  (A.K.A state id, wholesale, resale, reseller certificate, about $39 for most states).
    Seller's Permit



    Note: All businesses need a federal tax ID number except sole proprietors that are not employers and are not independent contractors.
    An independent contractor is a self employed business person that receives more than $600 per year from anyone of his or her clients.
    IRS rule: The client must issue a 1099 form to the independent contractor and the independent contractor must have a federal tax ID. However, even sole owners may obtain a federal ID and use it as a business tax ID instead of using their own social security number as a business tax ID number.
    However, all other licenses that apply to sole proprietors as discussed here are requited regardless of getting a federal tax ID number.


    In addition you will need a federal and a state EIN if you will hire employees. I.e., a AL Federal Tax Id Number ($29)  and a(n) AL  State Employer Tax Number  


    Instead of filing a fictitious business name DBA Filing (about $49 plus state and legal newspaper publication fees) in Prattville, Incorporate in AL  or form a(n) AL LLC
    . 

    Filing a DBA is not required if you will set up an LLC or form a Corporation. There is a cicrcumstance that you may not need to register a trade name and that is when you use your full name as a business name if you use your full legal name as a trade name.
    Also note that even using your first and last name may not help you avoid filing a DBA if the name has a suffix such as "& sons" etc.



    If you do form an Other llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Flea Market business instead of just filing a fictitious business name (dba), that insurs that you don't have personal liability for debts and civile liabililty arising from your business dealings and you will not have to record the Prattville business name. Instead of just registering your Autauga County assumed business name (our fee includes assumed business name registration and legal newspaper publication) you can choose to setup a corporation in AL or form an AL LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes bylaws for the corporation and Limited Liability operating agreement for the LLC that is required to open a business bank account). .
