The owner wrote: “Women's and men's clothing and accessories boutique.”
A boutique selling clothing and accessories needs the sales tax certificate of registration before buying inventory tax-free. Wholesale suppliers will typically ask for your Louisiana Resale Certificate and the registration number. Your trade name J' Necoles, if it differs from the LLC's exact name, will need a DBA. With two employees, we can also file the state employer registration. Just tell us how you'd like the business structured.
Short answer: Obtain Tax Id For Louisiana Clothing Boutique: the key filing in Louisiana is the sales tax certificate of registration. Suppliers will ask for its number and a Louisiana Resale Certificate (Form R-1042) before they sell to you tax-free.
Louisiana calls its seller's permit the sales tax certificate of registration. To buy for resale without paying sales tax, you give the supplier a Louisiana Resale Certificate (Form R-1042). 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. Louisiana issues resale certificates to registered dealers itself, while parish sales taxes are administered locally and may need separate registration.

Charles · Satin And Lace Boutique · Milford, PA
Charles asked: “I sell wedding dresses and I have a store.”
Hi Charles, a wedding dress store in Pennsylvania needs the Sales, Use and Hotel Occupancy Tax License, because gowns are taxable goods. Designers and wholesalers will usually ask for that license and the Form REV-1220 Pennsylvania Exemption Certificate before selling stock tax-free. Alterations are treated differently, so ask. Satin And Lace Boutique with one employee also needs an EIN.
Short answer: Certificates Need For Clothing Strore In Pennsylvi: start with the structure (an LLC for most owners), then the Sales, Use and Hotel Occupancy Tax License, a federal tax ID number (EIN) and a local business license.
In Pennsylvania, the seller's permit goes by the name Sales, Use and Hotel Occupancy Tax License. When you buy inventory to resell, the paperwork is a Form REV-1220 Pennsylvania Exemption Certificate. Not a sales tax license. A business selling only to resellers applies for a wholesaler certificate instead; it cannot hold both. Pennsylvania issues a separate wholesaler certificate to businesses that sell only for resale; any retail selling requires the sales tax license instead.
