Q: What do I need to get a online lingerie shop up and running legally?
A: Good to meet you, good news: a online lingerie shop is a well-trodden road, and we know its signposts. Each item below MAY apply to you, and we find out which ones do.
1. Business license: A business license for a lingerie shop MAY ask whether you sell online or in person, what categories you carry, whether items are shipped from home, and how buyers' ages are confirmed. 2. Home occupation permit: A home occupation permit MAY apply when intimate apparel stock and parcels fill a spare room, normally with limits on pickups, visitors and signs advertising the business. 3. Sales tax permit: A sales tax permit MAY be needed because lingerie sales are taxable, and wholesale buying with a resale certificate keeps tax from being paid twice. 4. Adult merchandise registration: Selling adult-oriented products alongside lingerie may require a separate registration or restrictions on advertising and shipping. 5. Age verification procedure: A written method for confirming buyers are adults may be requested when adult items are in the catalog. 6. Discreet packaging statement: A short description of how parcels are marked and shipped may be requested. 7. Company papers: Depending on how you want to own and name the business, an LLC, a DBA or a tax ID number may come next; we prepare those too.
Lingerie is made of lace, satin and confidence, and shoppers love unwrapping something that feels like a treat. Gift buyers return every anniversary.

Business code (NAICS): 448190 (Other Clothing Stores), 458110 under the 2022 update. This page lists 7 paperwork items for a online lingerie shop, and each one is marked as something you MAY need, since we confirm which apply.
Tip: Publish clear sizing charts with measurements in inches, since fit questions drive most returns.
Good to know: Sales of adult-oriented items may be restricted to adult buyers and may carry added rules.
The only thing smoother than the satin is the return policy.

You can start selling the moment the paperwork is approved, and the price is entirely yours: you decide your own markup, and tax is added at the register.
The set to start with is a business license, a sales tax permit, a resale certificate for your wholesalers, a DBA for the boutique name and, if your living room is the showroom, a home occupation permit. Several partners together are best placed in an LLC.
If you order a business license and it turns out you also need another one, such as a home occupation permit, we obtain both for the service fee of the business license. The govt's annual tax and application fees are separate and not included; we find the applications and fill them out for you.
The first step is the company: form an LLC, then get the business license and the EIN. A general contractor license MAY be required for construction work, so we confirm whether your jobs are large enough to need it.
Your consulting is a separate line. Helping clients pick technology usually needs only the business license, but clinical services would need a professional license, so keep them apart. A seller's permit is needed if you resell equipment.
