Glassy Ladies Of New England · Sandown, NH
Diamonds glittering under display lights, a polishing cloth squeaking, and a nervous shopper reaching for a ring box.
Short answer: Maas Tax Id Number: a jewelry store in Sandown typically needs a federal tax ID number (EIN) and a local business license, with an LLC and a DBA if you use a trade name.
No statewide sales tax, so the state issues no seller's permit and wholesale-only businesses need no sales tax registration. No general sales tax; businesses serving meals or renting rooms or cars need a Meals and Rooms (Rentals) Tax license. Wholesale accounts for jewelry and watches typically ask for proof of a seller's permit first; with it, inventory bought for resale is purchased without sales tax.
Tip: Insure your inventory and keep a written appraisal policy; sparkle is only reassuring when everything is accounted for.

Tiffany · Laddiee Redd · Hackensack, NJ
Tiffany told us: “Online jewelry store. All types of jewelry. We sell from our headquarters in New Jersey to other states and maybe out of the country.”
Hi Tiffany, an online jewelry store in Hackensack needs New Jersey's Certificate of Authority registration to collect tax on sales. Your jewelry suppliers will accept Form ST-3, the Resale Certificate, so you buy stock tax-free for resale. Selling to other states may bring their tax rules once your sales pass their thresholds, and exporting abroad adds shipping and customs rules. Laddiee Redd as a trade name needs a DBA.
Short answer: Hackensack NJ: start with the structure (an LLC for most owners), then the Certificate of Authority, a federal tax ID number (EIN) and a local business license.
The New Jersey version of the seller's permit is the Certificate of Authority. Suppliers selling to you tax-free will ask for a Form ST-3 Resale 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. New Jersey's ST-3 resale certificate requires the buyer's New Jersey registration number for in-state buyers.
