     You only need a general business permit.

       In addition, all Candy businesses must be identified by a business tax ID called a federal tax ID number or Employer Identification Number (EIN). If you file as a sole proprietor, you can use your social security number instead of the federal ID.

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

       The sellers permit is also called state ID, wholesale ID, resale ID, or re-seller license.

A: The Needed Permission To Sell candy chips and soda consists of the licensing you need such as a seller's permit. You can obtain all licensing for your candy chips and soda here including the business seller's permit because you will need it to buy wholesale and collect sales tax for in state Candy sales. You will also need a food handler's license that you can obtain online from a short online course. Also, keep in mind that "Angie's Candy LLC," is a trade name so you need to register it with a DBA, LLC or corporation. Since your name contains that suffix LLC, you will need to set up an LLC because you cannot use this suffix legally unless you are registered as an LLC.

To buy the candies wholesale (tax free), you need a wholesale license also called a sales tax ID or seller's permit. Of course, all businesses need a business license as well.

Seller's Permit

✔ Federal EIN

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.

✔ State EIN

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

✔ L L C

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

Filing a DBA is not required if you will set up an LLC or form a Corporation. 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.

✔ Incorporation

If you do form an Online Selling Stuff llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Candy 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 Yonkers business name. In lieu of recording a Westchester 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 NY or form an NY 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). .
