Short answer: Register For A Wholesale License For Clothing Manf: in Colorado, what most people call a wholesale license is the sales tax license. With it, and a Form DR 0563 Sales Tax Exemption Certificate (Multi-Jurisdiction) for your suppliers, a clothing distributor can buy inventory for resale without paying sales tax up front.

Buying and selling wholesale in Colorado

In Colorado, the seller's permit goes by the name sales tax license. To buy for resale without paying sales tax, you give the supplier a Form DR 0563 Sales Tax Exemption Certificate (Multi-Jurisdiction). Suppliers generally accept a resale certificate only from a buyer registered for sales tax, so even a business that mostly buys and sells wholesale usually registers. Many Colorado home-rule cities collect their own sales tax and issue their own licenses, separate from the state. Wholesale customers purchasing apparel should provide a resale certificate, and keeping a copy on file shows why no sales tax was charged on those sales.

What a clothing distributor needs in Colorado Springs, CO

LLC – suppliers and banks take an LLC more seriously than a name on a napkin
Trade Name (DBA) – lets the bank accept checks made out to your business name
Federal tax ID number (EIN) – keeps your Social Security number off W-9 forms and supplier paperwork
Sales tax license – the number wholesale suppliers want before they sell to you tax-free
Form DR 0563 Sales Tax Exemption Certificate (Multi-Jurisdiction) – keep a copy on file for every supplier you buy from tax-free
State employer ID – for state income tax withholding and unemployment insurance once you hire

Same permit, different names in other states

Arizona: the Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT) license. Arizona's TPT is a tax on the seller's privilege of doing business, not a tax on the buyer.
Nevada: the seller's permit. Nevada also has a Commerce Tax on businesses with large Nevada gross revenue, which can reach wholesalers.
Michigan: the Sales Tax License. Michigan wholesalers buying tax-free should give suppliers a written statement that they are purchasing for resale at wholesale.

Tip: Ask each retail buyer for a resale certificate before the first order ships; boutiques love discounts, and your paperwork loves the proof.

Industry code: NAICS 424350 (Clothing and Clothing Accessories Merchant Wholesalers)
