  Answer: Hi Hung, here is how to obtain your resale certificate: First, you need to obtain the seller's permit because, in MA, you need both the permit and the certificate.  



The Massachusetts sales tax is 6.25% of the sales price or rental charge on tangible personal property, including certain telecommunication services sold or rented in Massachusetts.



Sales tax is generally collected by the seller.  Since you are the seller, you will have to collect a 6.25% sales tax. For example, if you sell a gift at $40, you need to charge $40 plus $2.5 in sales tax because  6.5% of $40 is $2.50.  In addition, since you are doing business as (DBA) "A Story Begins," you need a DBA certificate filed.



However, you can also set up an LLC or corporation to register your DBA name.



  Finally, all businesses are required to obtain a business license because a "business" needs a business license.  You don't need a gift shop license, you need a business license for your gift shop.

   Hi! I was wondering if you need to have a liquor license to sell liquor in a gift basket business in NYS?

Answer: Yes, you will be required to obtain a license that allows you to sell and distribute alcoholic beverages and products. In most states, this is not a liquor license, but one that you can sell wine or liquor together with other food or products as a package.  Your business license may include alcohol without any additional fees, but it depends on the state you operate from; in Texas, and in Connecticut, for example, a $200 annual permit covers all forms of licensing for gift basket businesses.  In addition,  you need at least the seller's permit and the business license.  You need more than described on this site.  











  
     


   Other instances where you will need a federal tax ID are: if you are a partnership, an independent contractor, and a corporation or LLC.

However, you will still need other registrations, such as licenses, an assumed business name DBA, and tax IDs as described above.



Finally, even one person, sole owner/proprietors working from home or just online, can form an LLC or incorporate, in which case, they will not need to file a DBA

    Online Business Registration Package for Your Corporation


    Since you already have a Corporation in Connecticut, you don't need a new DBA unless your online website will operate under a different name than your existing corporate name - your Corporation already has an EIN which you'll use for the website business, and you'll need to amend your existing business license to include online retail/marketing services as an additional business activity, then apply for your Seller's Permit using your existing Corporation's information and EIN to collect sales tax on taxable online transactions. If your online website name differs from your Corporation name (example: "ABC Corporation" wants to operate website as "SuperDeals.com"), then file a DBA for that trade name, but if the website operates under your corporate name, skip the DBA and just obtain the Seller's Permit for online sales - the entire process involves just 2-3 applications since your Corporation already provides the legal structure and EIN. āœ… Obtain all licenses and registrations here online through your state's business portal using your existing corporate credentials!

    You need a social security number and or a federal tax id number or you can get it thru a USA company you own. For example, if you are a member of an LLC in Las Vegas, NV, you could get one.  In general, however, you don't need a seller's permit if you are buying from out of the USA.

    LLC (Limited Liability Company) FAQs:


    Q: Would an LLC be better than filing a fictitious business name?

    A: Regadless you will need to register the name. Instead just form an LLC or an S corporation though LLCs are preferred these days. For example if the assumed business name is . deHung Nuitch A Story BeginsCo. this company name as well as any other business name must be filed with the clerk as a trade name registration and that requires a filing fee to be registered.

    Just recording an assumed business name does nothing to keep the name exclusive nor does it avoid personal liability for the business owners. Only setting up a limited liability company (LLC) will protect the name at the state level and also protect the owners of personal liability. It is perhaps a better choice to just incorporate for the same or a little higher fee because you will also have corporate protection for the business name and personal vs business liabilities.

    E.g. if your business has debts the lender can sue you personally to obtain a judgment vs your personal assets as opposed in the case you were a corporation where the lender could only sue the corporation directly and if the limited liability company (LLC) had no assets the lender could get nothing.

    Note that once you incorporate no one can register the limited liability company (LLC) name at the state level.

    Q: Is Delaware the best state to incorporate or set up an llc?
    A: Best state is your state.

    Q: How can I find a good name for my business?
    A: Do some research on he web and then find a name that makes sense.

    Q: Is there a minimum amount of money I have to have before I set up an LLC?
    A: No you don't need money to start an LLC.

    Q: Can I set up my LLC alone or do I need a lawyer?
    A: Even if you needed a lawyer to set up your LLC we could do it for you because we have lawyers on our payroll.

    Q: How do I apply for an llc tax ID number?
    A: You can apply for a tax ID number here online. Simple click on the order button - fill out the application - and submit it so we can obtain the ID for you .

    Q: What are the benefits of havin a DUNS number?
    A: You can use it to your benefit by providing favorable business information to make it more likely to get a loan from a lender bank.

    Q: Do I need to pay sales tax to the state as an LLC?
    A: Paying sales tax depends on your state. For example in Oregon you dont need to pay sales tax but you still need a resale certificate to buy from other states wholesale products.

    Hi, I was needing the correct information for obtaining a re-sellers permit im opening up an online website just needing the correct application to get started.



    Yes, I know I need a seller's permit, that is why I'm browsing your site. Yes, I'm aware I do not need both, but I stated it so we could move forward and you could stop telling me what I needed when I already have it!



    I want to make an online website for marketing services and want to register it  DBA , business license and EIN , how i can get it ? okay great i want all that but can you send it yo me by email because here i cant understand i feel its not real person ? I have a Corporation that does business in Weston CT.

    Online Business Registration Package for Your Corporation


    Since you already have a Corporation in Connecticut, you don't need a new DBA unless your online website will operate under a different name than your existing corporate name - your Corporation already has an EIN which you'll use for the website business, and you'll need to amend your existing business license to include online retail/marketing services as an additional business activity, then apply for your Seller's Permit using your existing Corporation's information and EIN to collect sales tax on taxable online transactions. If your online website name differs from your Corporation name (example: "ABC Corporation" wants to operate website as "SuperDeals.com"), then file a DBA for that trade name, but if the website operates under your corporate name, skip the DBA and just obtain the Seller's Permit for online sales - the entire process involves just 2-3 applications since your Corporation already provides the legal structure and EIN. āœ… Obtain all licenses and registrations here online through your state's business portal using your existing corporate credentials!

    You need a social security number and or a federal tax id number or you can get it thru a USA company you own. For example, if you are a member of an LLC in Las Vegas, NV, you could get one.  In general, however, you don't need a seller's permit if you are buying from out of the USA.

    Seller's Permit Coverage for Multiple Cities


    Your state-issued Seller's Permit works across ALL cities within your state - you don't need a separate seller's permit for Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach, or any other city within the same state. The seller's permit is issued at the state level and allows you to collect and remit sales tax throughout the entire state. However, while your seller's permit covers tax collection statewide, you may need additional local business licenses or vendor permits in each city where you have a physical presence or regularly conduct business - for example, if you're selling at a farmer's market in Fort Lauderdale, they might require a local vendor permit, or if you set up a distribution point in Pompano Beach, that city might require its own business license, but these are separate from your seller's permit which remains valid statewide.
