   I am a crafter and will be buying wholesale items and selling them online from home and in person I would like to sell them out of state and maybe open an Etsy account? Answer: As a crafter, you will need the seller's permit to sell  online.  





A: Yes, a sellers permit is required to buy your craft materials wholesale and sell them if you sell handmade crafts merchandise wholesale or retail. Users of a trade name will need a fictitious business name filing. For example, if you name your handmade craft business "TLM TRENDY CRAFTS," you will need to officially register that business name. If you don't file a DBA business name, you need to at least form an LLC or incorporate it in order to register your trade name. 



                             Yes, you need to become a business to sell handmade crafts.

                             Thus, you first, select your business structure: Sole Proprietor, Partnership, LLC or Corporation.



                             Then, a sellers permit is required to buy your craft materials wholesale and sell retail  if you sell handmade crafts merchandise wholesale or retail.

                             If you are an employer, i.e., if you hire anyone to help you with handmade craft making, you will need a federal employer number and a State Employer Number.

                             Users with a trade name will need a fictitious business name filing.  For example, if you name your handmade craft business "Crafty but Arty," you will need to officially register that business name.



                              Finally, you have the option of incorporating or forming an LLC for your handmade craft business. We just bought a property that has an existing craft store, and we are interested in selling ice cream out of a stationary ice cream truck. We have filed a fictitious name and are an LLC. Let me start over..


           I just entered the zip code and won't let me continue. I am starting a crafting business from my home in Kawabata County, Mississippi. What do I need? I want to sell my homemade crafts at telemarketers what do I need to do? I will manufacture craft items, sell different type candy,sell wood burning items, and more. Furthermore, I plan to visit and take part in Texas and surrounding states. If you want to see craft items like homemade tshirts & keychains in MS.





         How to collect & pay sales tax? County tax too?
     






Q: online selling homemade products knickknacks nationwide on Etsy, Facebook, website, geek pages, etc?



            

        


     To buy  merchandise such as dollhouses and dollhouses  accessories  wholesale, you need a sales tax ID also called a seller's permit.

  

The requirement comes from
  TN  state legislation taxation and finance statute   that requires you to get a seller's permit.

    The way that works is after you get the seller's permit, you use the resale certificate that comes with the permit to fax or email  a signed copy to the wholesaler, and then you can buy wholesale because the wholesaler will not sell you merchandise without the resale certificate.



In fact, sometimes the wholesaler wants a copy of the original seller's permit certificate before selling you anything wholesale.



    Also, you need the permit number so you can remit the sales tax you collect from your sales in   TN  and other U.S. states.  You also need additional licenses to run your online business.      So you need at least a DBA, LLC or corporation, the seller's permit for that and as a business, a business license and an EIN.



   You need the DBA, LLC or corporation because you need to register the "Minirealities," fictitious business name.  You can do that with a Doing Business As (DBA) filing, an LLC set up or a corporate formation.



     If you hire people to help you, you need to open an employer withholding account and that requires a state employer ID as well as a federal tax ID to pay withholding taxes for your employees.





    

Q: I HAVE MY EIN WHICH IS 9 DIGITS, BUT DON'T HAVE MY SEIN I also have an LLC, but I have no idea what is a SEIN I repeat, I have an LLC, EIN, DBA, all I need is the seller's permit looks like it's working out with you or this is a person to machine conversation. A:Yes, you need the state employer ID and the seller's permit.



Q: do I need a permit to sell handmade crafts at a craft show?



Yes, the seller's permit.



I want to register my business - small custom crafts and flea market. Will sell at year-round flea market booth and online website.



Ok, to register it, you will need all licensing as with any business.



Do I have to be in a formal business in order to I am going to start selling items at a craft fair?



Yes, you can do formal licensing.



Handmade I live in South Carolina and I make handmade candles. I want to do a craft fair next month in GA. do I need any kind of license for this?



Yes, you need licensing such as a business license and a seller's permit.



  I have my license for SC and I just want to do one or two craft fairs in GA.



Hello, I was looking into if I need a license to sell handmade handbags at a craft fair I'm trying to obtain a seller's permit for a craft fair I have/had a salon, so I have my sellers permit, is there anything else I need to sell at a craft fair.



  
     


          



   I  make and sell dollhouses from my Etsy store from home online. I sell abroad and in all 50 states. Business License West point TN ?



            

            Answer: You need a business license, but you also need a seller's permit because you are a manufacturer as well as a retailer of dollhouses.  The State of  Tennessee has a sales tax rate for crafts that is 7.000%. The Range of Local Rates FPR crafts is  1.5% – 2.75% in addition to the 7% rate of the state.    According to   TN  Title XIV statute for sales tax, you will need a seller's permit AKA sales tax ID to sell merchandise for your Online Selling.



     To buy  merchandise such as dollhouses and dollhouses  accessories  wholesale, you need a sales tax I'd also called a seller's permit.

   The requirement comes from
  TN  state legislation taxation and finance statute   that requires you to get a seller's permit.

You can choose to be a(n) Crafts :

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



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



A(n) Crafts business using a fictitious business name in Fairfield County i.e. you are a business with a trade name other than the owner's legal (full name) name are required to get a(n) fictitious business name. Β  For instance you open a(n) Crafts business and you name it "Superior Crafts Group". You will need to file a fictitious business name for that name.

In CT you need a resale ID ( AKA seller's permit) if you selling touchable items. Β (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 CT Federal Tax Id Number ($29) Β and a(n) CT Β State Employer Tax NumberΒ Β 


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

You have a choice to file a DBA or form an LLC or incorporate. If you will do business under your first and last legal name you will not need to get a fictitious business 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 Home Based Business llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Crafts 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 Danbury business name. In lieu of recording a Fairfield County trade company name (our filing service fee includes trade name registration and newspaper legal publication for 4 weeks) you can also form a corporation in CT or form an CT LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes required documents such as bylaws for the corporation and Limited Liability operating agreement for the LLC). .
