Reiki Pottery And Metaphysical Artifacts · Fairfield, CA
The owner asked: “I sell arts and crafts in all 50 states.”
Selling to customers in all 50 states means California's seller's permit for your home state, plus tax duties in other states once your sales there pass their thresholds. Suppliers will accept the resale certificate (Form CDTFA-230) for materials that go into what you sell. Reiki Pottery And Metaphysical Artifacts is a trade name, so a DBA belongs on your list. We can file them.
Short answer: In Fairfield, California, businesses are required to obtain licensing before they start operating. For an arts and crafts business, that means the seller's permit, a federal tax ID number (EIN) and a local business license, plus a structure and name registration.
California calls its seller's permit the seller's permit. When you buy inventory to resell, the paperwork is a resale certificate (Form CDTFA-230). California requires a seller's permit for sales of tangible goods, and the permit covers selling at wholesale or retail. A California resale certificate normally shows the buyer's seller's permit number; sellers accept it in good faith to skip tax.
