Beaverton, OR
Rails of crisp new arrivals, tissue paper rustling in the back room and a steam wand puffing against a collar.
Short answer: For a clothing business in Beaverton, Oregon, the essentials are a federal tax ID number (EIN) and a local business license, plus an LLC or other structure.
No statewide sales tax, so the state issues no seller's permit and wholesale-only businesses need no sales tax registration.

Tip: Start with a tight collection that mixes and matches; a closet of ten items beats a rack of fifty that don't go together.
