Kelley told us: “I would like to operate an online store. I would like to buy new and vintage toys and collectibles at wholesale price directly from the distributor, and sell them on an online store or eBay to customers in all 50 states from my home.”
Hi Kelley, Toys and collectibles from distributors are classic resale goods. Register for the seller's permit, then give distributors the Nevada resale certificate (buyer must hold a seller's permit) and your permit number for tax-free purchases. Vintage items from private sellers will not have a permit number, so keep receipts. Selling in all 50 states can create tax duties elsewhere after you pass thresholds, so track sales by state.
Short answer: Cost For Wholesale License Nevada: Nevada doesn't issue a document called a "wholesale license." The registration suppliers ask for is the seller's permit, backed by a Nevada resale certificate (buyer must hold a seller's permit).
The Nevada version of the seller's permit is the seller's permit. When you buy inventory to resell, the paperwork is a Nevada resale certificate (buyer must hold a seller's permit). Nevada requires businesses selling tangible goods in the state to register, and a seller's permit is a prerequisite for issuing resale certificates. Nevada also has a Commerce Tax on businesses with large Nevada gross revenue, which can reach wholesalers.

Tonja asked: “I will sell ladies garments on eBay, online.”
Hi Tonja, Selling women's garments online from Virginia calls for the Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Registration, which lets you collect tax on taxable sales and buy inventory tax-free. Present the Form ST-10 Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Exemption and your permit number to each supplier. Marketplace sites sometimes collect tax for you, but you should still register and keep records, since your business is the seller.
Short answer: For an online women's clothing business in King George, Virginia, the essentials are the Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Registration, a federal tax ID number (EIN) and a local business license, plus an LLC or other structure.
Virginia calls its seller's permit the Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Registration. When you buy inventory to resell, the paperwork is a Form ST-10 Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Exemption. 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. In-state buyers using Form ST-10 generally need a Virginia registration; out-of-state buyers can cite their home-state number. Out-of-state buyers do not need a Virginia registration to give a valid Virginia resale certificate.
