Legal Must-Haves: Business Registration & Structure

   Before you start sawing away, your business needs a proper legal structure. Here are your main options:  
  • LLC (Limited Liability Company): A popular choice for small business owners because it protects your personal assets from business liabilities. Plus, it offers tax flexibility.
  •   
  • S Corp or C Corp: These work well if you’re planning to grow and bring on investors, but they come with more paperwork and tax requirements.
  •   
  • DBA ("Doing Business As"): If you’re operating under a name that’s different from your legal entity, you’ll need to register it.
  •   

    Essential Licenses & Permits

       Now for the paperwork! Since you’re selling lumber wholesale, milling, and potentially making furniture, here’s what you’ll need:  
  • Business License: Required to legally operate any business.
  •   
  • Seller’s Permit: Needed if you're selling lumber, furniture, or construction materials at retail. This allows you to collect and remit sales tax.
  •   
  • Wholesaler License: If you're selling to contractors, retailers, or other businesses in bulk, a wholesale license helps keep everything above board.
  •   
  • Logging Permits: If you're cutting trees from your own land or sourcing logs, you may need specific permits related to forestry and logging.
  •   
  • Furniture Manufacturing Permit: If you're making furniture, some areas require additional manufacturing permits.
  •   
  • Environmental Permits: If you're processing wood (sawing, drying, treating), there could be environmental regulations to follow.

    Industry Numbers & Investment The Lumber Business: A Growing Industry with Deep Roots So, you're looking to turn trees into profit? Smart move! The U.S. lumber and wood products industry is worth over **$140 billion annually**, and demand for sustainable, locally sourced wood is rising. Whether you're supplying builders with wholesale lumber, crafting custom furniture, or both, there's definitely money to be made. Of course, before you start stacking that cash (or those planks), you'll need the right licenses, registrations, and a solid business structure. Let’s break it all down. Starting Up: Capital & Equipment Needed Getting into the lumber business isn’t just about having a chainsaw and a strong back. You’ll need some serious equipment and capital to start. Logging Equipment: Chainsaws, skidders, log loaders, and sawmills Transportation: Flatbed trucks, trailers, forklifts Processing: Planers, kiln drying setups (if you’re refining your lumber) Workshop Tools: If you’re making furniture, add saws, sanders, drills, and finishing tools Initial Investment: Depending on the scale, starting costs can range from **$50,000 to $500,000** (or more if you’re going big!)

    The lumber and wood furniture manufacturing industry represents a $12 billion market in the US, with 2.3% annual growth. Small-scale operations focusing on specialty pieces see profit margins of 25-35%.

    Initial investment ranges $50,000-$150,000 for basic equipment: Portable sawmill ($20,000-40,000) - Essential for processing raw logs into usable lumber Kiln drying facility ($15,000-30,000) - Necessary for properly drying wood to prevent warping Woodworking tools ($10,000-40,000) - Including table saws, planers, jointers, and hand tools Storage/workshop ($5,000-40,000) - Climate-controlled space for wood storage and work Equipment Requirements

    Essential logging and processing equipment: Commercial chainsaws and safety gear for initial tree cutting operations Logging winch and skidder for moving heavy logs safely and efficiently Portable sawmill for converting logs into dimensional lumber Moisture meters to ensure proper wood drying and quality control Furniture Production Setup

    Workshop requirements include: Industrial planers and jointers for preparing rough lumber Professional-grade woodworking tools for furniture construction Dust collection system for workplace safety and cleanliness Climate-controlled storage areas for both raw materials and finished pieces Financial Planning

    Initial 6-month operating budget: Equipment lease/purchase: $50,000 - Includes all necessary tools and machinery Insurance coverage: $5,000 - Liability and equipment protection Permits and licenses: $2,000-5,000 - Varies by location Marketing initiatives: $3,000 - Website, photography, local advertising Working capital: $20,000 - For materials and operating expenses Emergency fund: $10,000 - For unexpected equipment repairs or opportunities Record Keeping Requirements

    Q:What happens after I choose the structure of my business?
    A:First, you need a business license, and the DBA registration. Then, it depends whether you are an employer.. if you are one, you will need a federal and state employer tax number ID. In addition, if you sell any items or you lease any taxable items you will need a sales tax id number.
    Q:What if I have a partner, Do I need to register more than one DBA name?
    A:If you have a pertner, you still get one fictitious business name filing that has both partners names and home addresses.
    A:
    Q:What if I operate in another county area but my clients are in yet another county? Depending on the volume of your business you may have to get licensing to come in the county to do business but the ficitious business name is issued where you business is located so you will need only one registration for the county your office is located.

    A:Sole proprietorship vs. DBA vs. "S" corporation. From all these, naturally, LLC is better vs. Sole proprietor because an LLC saves taxes and protects your assets. On the other hand, an "S" corporation can help you better than an LLC or a sole proprietorship in many specific cases.
    Q:What if I decide not to start a business? Will I get a refund for my Fictitious Business Name fees I paid? Unfortunately, fees for DBA filing and registration are not refundable.
    A:Is a business name registration sufficient to start a business or is insurance required? Most businesses do need insurance but you may need to register your company name and obtain a business license as well as some type of tax ID depending on you type of business before starting your business.

    Sales & Use Tax Rate Changes Effective January 1, 2021 



    Who is required to have a a Seller's permit also called a Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) license, a wholesale ID, a state ID, and or reseller ID?

        First, Individuals or businesses that sell tangible personal property, such as jewelry, for example,  to the final consumer, i.e., the person that uses the item sold, need a Seller's permit .

    Where Can Obtain a Seller's permit in Michigan?

        A seller's  permit may be obtained on our web site.

        In order to register your Seller's permit to collect Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) , please follow the application process by just clicking on the order or get Seller's permit button, submitting your business info and selecting Seller's permit .

    Do I have to pay City/Local/County Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) in addition to the state tax?

        Michigan has no city, local, or county Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) .

    What Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) Rate Will I have to charge for Michigan Taxable Sales?

        The state Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) rate is 6%.

        The most common businesses that are required to get a Seller's permit are retailers - Retailers make sales to the end consumer.

         Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) of 6% on their retail sales must be remitted to the State of Michigan.

        In addition, retailers must get a Seller's permit to collect tax from their customers and remit the Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) to the State of Michigan.

        Wholesalers are the second most common business that are required to get a Seller's permit

        in most states, but Michigan does not require them to get one.

        Wholesalers sell to other wholesalers or retailers and not to the final consumer.

        The price at which the seller sells a product does not determine if the seller is a wholesaler. The determination is based on whom the products are sold to by the seller.

        Wholesalers buy for resale at wholesale.

        They are not making retail sales; therefore registration for Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) is not required. Wholesalers claiming an exemption should provide a written statement that they are purchasing for "resale at wholesale".

        However, contractors such as construction general contractors do not need a Seller's permit because they are considered the end consumer of the parts and materials for construction

        - A Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) license is not required for contractors or subcontractors, since they are the final consumers of the materials they affix to real property so they need to pay tax when buying the materials. 

        Anyone who is directly engaged in the activity of constructing, altering, repairing, or improving real estate for others is liable for the Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) on the inventory value of the materials affixed to the property. However, contractors can charge the taxes to the clients buy charging a higher price for the construction projects.

        Note that businesses, who sell tangible personal property in addition to providing labor or a service, are required to obtain a Seller's permit / Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) license. For example, a plumber is required to obtain a Seller's permit if instead of just installing plumbing, he also sells plumbing materials.

        Any property which goes with the customer in connection with the repair or service is considered a sale at retail and subject to Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) .
