Brent · Air Hunter · Casper, WY
Brent told us: “We are bringing something new to the town of Casper and the state of Wyoming. The stores around us sell very little of the product, and you cannot get parts or service, which will be our foothold in the market.”
Hi Brent, Parts and service in a town where nobody else offers them is a sound foothold. In Wyoming you register for the Sales/Use Tax License, then give suppliers the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Exemption to buy stock and parts tax-free for resale. With 4 employees, the state employer registration there is for unemployment insurance (no state income tax withholding).

Wyoming is a Streamlined Sales Tax member state, so buyers use the uniform Streamlined certificate for resale.

John · John's Inc. · Riverton, WY
John wrote: “I will buy new and used motorcycles, and rent and sell mobile homes.”
Hi John, Motorcycles and mobile homes both usually require dealer licensing that is separate from the sales tax paperwork, so start there. Wyoming's Sales/Use Tax License covers taxable sales, and the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Exemption is for inventory you buy to resell. Rentals may be treated differently from sales. Wyoming has no state income tax on wages, so three employees involve unemployment insurance only. John's Inc. may not need a DBA.
Short answer: Obtaian Tax ID Riverton WY: Wyoming doesn't issue a document called a "wholesale license." The registration suppliers ask for is the Sales/Use Tax License, backed by a Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Exemption.
