Hi Jennifer, custom shirts, decals and cups are taxable goods in Nebraska, so you will want the Sales Tax Permit. Buying blank shirts and cups for decoration is tax-free with Form 13 Resale or Exempt Sale Certificate, but vinyl or ink you use up is usually taxable. Red Cloud may require a local business license for a home-based business.
Short answer: Business License Application Red Cloud NE: for a personalized shirts and cups business in Red Cloud, Nebraska, the core set is the Sales Tax Permit, a federal tax ID number (EIN) and a local business license, plus a business structure and name registration.
In Nebraska, the seller's permit goes by the name Sales Tax Permit. Suppliers selling to you tax-free will ask for a Form 13 Resale or Exempt Sale 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. Nebraska is a Streamlined Sales Tax member state; its Form 13 covers resale purchases.
