Q: What licenses and permits might I need to start an online electronics store?
A: Good to meet you, this is the list that goes with an online electronics store. Nothing here is a guess: it is the paperwork a business like yours commonly meets, and we sort out which pieces are yours.
1. Business license: A business license for an online electronics store MAY ask which devices you sell, whether new or refurbished, where stock is kept and how orders are packed and shipped. 2. Home occupation permit: A home occupation permit MAY apply when gadgets and shipping boxes fill part of your home, usually limiting delivery trucks, walk-in buyers, signs and the amount of stock on display. 3. Sales tax permit: A sales tax permit MAY be needed because phones, speakers and cables sold online are taxable, and a resale certificate covers purchases from distributors. 4. Electronic waste handling: Selling or taking back used electronics MAY come with rules about proper recycling of batteries and screens. 5. Authorized dealer letter: A letter or invoice from a distributor can show that your devices come from a legitimate supply chain. 6. Product warranty statement: A short statement of your return and warranty terms may be asked for. 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.

Q: I have an electronics company and a website. I will buy new parts from Newegg and directly from manufacturers, and I will sell through my website nationwide and internationally.

You MAY need a business license, a sales tax permit for your retail sales, and that resale certificate so your parts purchases are not taxed on the way in.

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.
