Kimberly · Divine Wigs from Kimberly · Woodbridge, VA
Kimberly shared: “I will buy wholesale wigs and sell to customers in all 50 states in my home.”
Hi Kimberly, reselling wigs from home in Virginia means registering for the Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Registration. Your wholesale wig suppliers will ask for it, plus Form ST-10 Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Exemption, before selling to you tax-free for resale. Customers in other states may bring their sales thresholds into play once you cross them. Divine Wigs from Kimberly works as a DBA name.
Short answer: In Woodbridge, Virginia, businesses are required to obtain licensing before they start operating. For a wig business, that means the Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Registration, a federal tax ID number (EIN) and a local business license, plus a structure and name registration.
The Virginia version of the seller's permit is the Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Registration. Suppliers selling to you tax-free will ask for 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.

Wholesalers will usually ask for it and Form E-595E before selling you inventory tax-free. Hair and wigs from overseas wholesalers often require your business name and EIN too. MO's Wigs & Things needs a DBA unless it is an LLC's exact name, and you can keep everything under one registration.

The North Carolina version of the seller's permit is the Certificate of Registration (sales and use tax). When you buy inventory to resell, the paperwork is a Form E-595E Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Certificate of Exemption. A wholesale merchant must register; wholesale-only businesses with no taxable sales or purchases can choose a wholesale-only option and skip filing returns. North Carolina lets registered wholesale-only merchants opt out of filing sales and use tax returns.
