Kriza shared: “I am a licensed cosmetologist and a licensed cosmetology instructor wanting a store and website. I will teach advanced cosmetology classes and sell hair and hair products as well as clothes, shoes and accessories. I will sell on a website, eBay, at vendor events and hair shows in all 50 states.”
Hi Kriza, your cosmetology credentials are a real asset. Arizona's Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT) license covers retail sales of hair products, clothes, shoes and accessories, and the Form 5000A resale certificate lets you buy items for resale tax-free. Teaching classes may need separate school or instructor approvals. Selling at events across the country means each state's rules apply, so tell us the event plans. With two employees, add the state employer registration.
Short answer: Apply For Arizona Wholesale Retail License Sole Ow: the key filing in Arizona is the Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT) license. Suppliers will ask for its number and a Form 5000A resale certificate before they sell to you tax-free.
In Arizona, the seller's permit goes by the name Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT) license. Suppliers selling to you tax-free will ask for a Form 5000A resale certificate. An Arizona wholesaler must hold a TPT license to buy for resale tax-free and must file returns reporting its wholesale sales. Arizona's TPT is a tax on the seller's privilege of doing business, not a tax on the buyer.
