✔ Biz Structure

You can choose to be a(n) FLOWERS :

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

✔ Biz License

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

✔ DBA Biz Name

A(n) FLOWERS business doing business under an assumed business name in Granville County i.e. you are a business that uses a DBA doing business as trade name to trade that is other than the full legal (first and last -- full name) name of a sole proprietor or a name other than the LLC or Corporation business name need a(n) assumed business name certificate. E.g. you venture into a(n) FLOWERS business and you give it a trade name such as "Excellence FLOWERS & Associates". You will need to register an assumed business name certificate.

✔ Seller Permit

In NC FLOWERS you need a resale ID ( AKA seller's permit) if you selling touchable items. (A.K.A state id, wholesale, resale, reseller certificate, about $39 for most states). You will need it if you sell or want to buy wholesale any FLOWERS related items, such as food, materials, or merchandise.
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 NC Federal Tax Id Number ($29) and a(n) NC 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 Creedmoor, Incorporate in NC or form a(n) NC 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 Flowers llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your FLOWERS 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 Creedmoor business name. In lieu of recording a Granville 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 NC or form an NC 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). .

REQUIRED LICENSES
Flowers Legal Structure
Whether an Flowers online, home, store, concession stand or a mobile cart, you will need to first select among sole owner/proprietor, partnership, LLC or corporation, all of which also require a General Business License (not a specific license to your type of business) as well. If your trade name is a business name other than your full personal legal name, you will need to file a DBA .

For instance, your name is John Doe, and you do business as Best Widgets By John, the name must be registered with a DBA Biz Name Flowers because it is not your full legal name.

Also, note that whatever item that you sell or lease and it is an item that can be touched (i.e., tangible such as Flowers equipment, toys, merchandise, electronics, prepared food) requires a state sales tax ID ( Sellers Permit ) to either buy or sell the items or products wholesale and or sell them retail. If you are hiring workers anytime soon, you will need a Federal EIN and a State EIN (employer identification number). Other instances that you will need a federal tax ID are: if you are a partnership, an Flowers independent contractor, and a corporation or an LLC .

You can also obtain a federal tax ID as a sole proprietor and use it as a business tax ID in the place of a social security number. However, you will still need other Flowers registrations, such as licenses, an assumed business name DBA, and tax IDs as described above.

Finally, even one person, Flowers sole owner/proprietors working from home or just online can form a LLC or incorporate, in which case, they will not need to file a DBA. How much it costs everything the permet and the other stuff thinking bout selling flowers and other merchandise hold on so I can its moving the screen ok hold on let me read all this a lot of good info though .

Yes I am looking to start a mobile flower business So this is my plan. I have a camper being transformed into a little store front that I can travel to markets with. I want to start with selling flowers and doing flower crowns and possibly adding in lemonade if possible. .

My Granddaughter is 9 years old and what to sell my Dahlia flower. What licenses does she need? The flowers are from my garden. they are free. I want to sell silk flowers .i would like to know how much license will cost.

Yes I'm trying to see what type of license I need here in Alabama to order flowers hi, what i need to do to get a florist license number to buy flowers in a wholesale distributor. I just do flowers for friends events.
