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 High Point, Incorporate in NC or form a(n) NC LLC .

You have a choice to file a DBA or form an LLC or incorporate. There is a cicrcumstance that you may not need to register a trade name and that is when you use your full name as a business name if you use your full legal name as a trade 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 Other llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Perfumes 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 High Point business name. Instead of just registering your Guilford County assumed business name (our fee includes assumed business name registration and legal newspaper publication) you can choose to setup a corporation in NC or form an NC LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes required documents such as bylaws for the corporation and Limited Liability operating agreement for the LLC). .

How do I get a perfume shop in Absecon, NJ licensed?

Glass bottles catching the light, a mist of jasmine and amber, and a tester card waving through the air.

Short answer: In Absecon, New Jersey, businesses are required to obtain licensing before they start operating. For a perfume shop, that means the Certificate of Authority, a federal tax ID number (EIN) and a local business license, plus a structure and name registration.

Buying and selling wholesale in New Jersey

The New Jersey version of the seller's permit is the Certificate of Authority. Suppliers selling to you tax-free will ask for a Form ST-3 Resale Certificate. 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. New Jersey's ST-3 resale certificate requires the buyer's New Jersey registration number for in-state buyers. Buying fragrances and bottles from suppliers with a resale certificate means no sales tax at purchase, since the items will be resold to customers who pay it instead.

The paper trail for Absecon, NJ

LLC – protects personal assets if a customer or supplier dispute turns into a lawsuit
Trade Name (Alternate Name for corporations and LLCs) – needed when you trade under a name other than your legal name or the LLC's exact name
Federal tax ID number (EIN) – required for an LLC with partners or any business with employees
Certificate of Authority – required before the first taxable sale, including online, flea market and craft fair sales
Form ST-3 Resale Certificate – 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
Absecon business license – renewed every year; inspectors may visit if you sell food or work with the public

How other states name the wholesale permit

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.
North Carolina: the Certificate of Registration (sales and use tax). North Carolina lets registered wholesale-only merchants opt out of filing sales and use tax returns.
Oregon: No statewide sales tax, so no seller's permit; out-of-state suppliers may still ask for documentation such as a multistate exemption certificate.

Tip: Buy only from authorized suppliers; knockoff perfume is a short route to a long dispute.

Industry code: NAICS 446120 (Cosmetics, Beauty Supplies, and Perfume Stores), 456120 under the 2022 update
