Q: An online store: what licenses and permits come into play?
A: Good to meet you, let us walk through what your online store may need, piece by piece, so nothing surprises you on opening day.
1. Business license: A business license for online selling MAY ask what you sell, whether you buy wholesale or make items yourself, and how orders reach buyers, since there is usually no shop. 2. Home occupation permit: A home occupation permit MAY apply as inventory and shipping supplies spread through the house, normally with limits on carrier trucks, shoppers picking up purchases and exterior signs. 3. Sales tax permit: A sales tax permit MAY be needed since most items sold online are taxable, and sales through marketplaces, auctions and your own website can follow different collection rules. 4. Marketplace seller verification: Some sales channels may ask for proof that your permits are in place before they release payouts or let you sell certain items. 5. Inventory source list: A summary of where your goods come from may be asked for to confirm you buy from real suppliers. 6. Home business statement: A signed note promising that sales stay online and your doorstep stays quiet may be required. 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.
