Seller's Permit
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.
In addition you will need a federal and a state EIN if you will hire employees.
I.e., a TN Federal Tax Id Number ($29)
and a(n) TN State Employer Tax Number

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.
If you do form an Retail Trade llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Sports Apparell 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 Franklin business name.
In lieu of recording a Williamson 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
TN or form an TN 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). .

| Dto3 Sports · Franklin, TN Obtain Retail License Id: what does a sports apparel store in Franklin, TN need to buy and sell wholesale? Jerseys in team colors, a wall of caps and a kid holding a favorite player's number up to the mirror. Short answer: Obtain Retail License Id: Tennessee doesn't issue a document called a "wholesale license." The registration suppliers ask for is the sales and use tax certificate of registration, backed by a Tennessee Certificate of Resale. Buying and selling wholesale in TennesseeThe Tennessee version of the seller's permit is the sales and use tax certificate of registration. To buy for resale without paying sales tax, you give the supplier a Tennessee Certificate of Resale. 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. Separately, wholesalers generally register for the state business tax. Tennessee's business tax classifies a business as wholesaler or retailer each year, depending on whether wholesale sales exceed half its total sales. Team jerseys and sportswear bought from suppliers to resell can usually be purchased with a resale certificate, while racks, signs and bags used in the shop are taxable. The paper trail for Franklin, TN- LLC – limits personal liability, and an LLC under its exact name needs no extra DBA
- Assumed Name (DBA) – registers the trade name on your sign, website and invoices
- Federal tax ID number (EIN) – keeps your Social Security number off W-9 forms and supplier paperwork
- Sales and use tax certificate of registration – required before the first taxable sale, including online, flea market and craft fair sales
- Tennessee Certificate of Resale – hand it to suppliers to buy inventory for resale without sales tax
- State employer ID – for unemployment insurance; Tennessee has no state income tax on wages
- Franklin business license – the city or county tracks who does business there and checks safety rules
If you sell across state lines- 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.
- California: the seller's permit. A California resale certificate normally shows the buyer's seller's permit number; sellers accept it in good faith to skip tax.
- Illinois: the Certificate of Registration (sales tax), with an Illinois resale number. Illinois' sales tax is legally the Retailers' Occupation Tax, a tax on the seller; resellers get a resale number to buy tax-free.
