Q: I am opening a handmade knit goods shop. Which licenses, permits and registrations may apply to me?
A: Hi Aaron, let us walk through what your handmade knit goods shop may need, piece by piece, so nothing surprises you on opening day.
1. Business license: A business license for a knit goods seller MAY ask what you knit, where you make it, and whether you sell at fairs, online or by commission. 2. Home occupation permit: A home occupation permit MAY apply to a knitting corner and yarn storage at home, with limits on buyer visits, shipments, signage and stored stock. 3. Sales tax permit: A sales tax permit MAY be needed because handmade scarves and hats are taxable goods, and craft fair and online sales are reported separately. 4. Craft show vendor permit: Selling at craft fairs may require a temporary vendor permit. 5. Landlord clearance statement: A signed note approving a craft workspace at home may be requested. 6. Fiber content record: A note on the yarns used may be requested so labels are accurate. 7. Employer registration: A team means MORE forms: an employer ID, payroll registration and proof of workers' compensation coverage may be asked for. 8. 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.

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.
