Hi Marjorie, MRS Jewelry Crafting & Selling sounds like a promising venture. Turning a hobby into income is deeply satisfying, and each new design can become a seasonal bestseller. The West Virginia business registration certificate for sales tax comes first here, because it is what lets you collect sales tax and buy inventory wholesale. Below we walk through the three things every new business in West Virginia sorts out (structure, tax IDs, and licenses) and then sum it all up.
West Virginia requires a business registration and sales tax collection on taxable goods, so jewelry sold directly at shows or online outside Etsy and eBay belongs on your sales tax returns. Selling through local businesses is its own question: if shops buy your pieces outright, they hand you a resale certificate and you skip tax on that sale, but on consignment, check who collects it. Your crystal, agate and bead supplies can be bought without tax with your own resale certificate. Collectibles are taxable too, so keep them in the same records. Sole makers with no employees avoid payroll filings, for now.

Here's How to Get Your CT Seller's Permit and Other permits and Registrations You May Need.
CT Seller's Permit, LLC, DBA, Licenses & Tax IDs Requirements:
Start with a Connecticut sales and use tax permit. A thrift and consignment shop sells taxable goods to the public, so you must collect sales tax, and consigned items count as your sales too.
• Trade name: a DBA if you operate under a shop name as a sole proprietor, though an LLC would separate the shop's debts from your own. • EIN: useful for banking and required once you hire anyone. • Local business license and zoning approval for the Bridgeport storefront, plus any certificate of occupancy for the space. • Written consignment agreements with each seller, spelling out the split and the holding period. • Employer accounts for unemployment and withholding if you add staff.
Secondhand dealer rules sometimes apply to jewelry or electronics, so ask us before stocking those.
In Mississippi you would register for a sales tax permit. That registration is what lets you hand wholesalers a resale certificate, so you buy inventory without paying sales tax on it, and it also obliges you to collect tax on sales to Mississippi customers.
As a sole proprietor you can run under your own name, or file a DBA if you want a brand name on your website and invoices. Many wholesalers also ask for an EIN, which keeps your Social Security number off paperwork. Check whether your town wants a local privilege or business license even for a home-based online shop. If you will sell into other states in volume, you may owe sales tax registration there too. An LLC is optional but worth considering once sales grow, and we can file every piece of this for you.
Your cosmetology license covers the services you perform, but selling products is a separate matter. In Ohio you need a vendor's license, since you will be collecting sales tax on every bottle and tool sold to a client.
That same vendor's license lets you buy product from distributors using a resale certificate, so you stop paying tax at the wholesale counter. If you work from a salon booth, ask the owner whether sales run through their register or yours, because that decides whose license is used. Add an EIN, and an LLC or DBA if you want a brand name on your invoices. Your contractor license does not figure into retail, so unless you sell in a store you lease, a local business license is the only other piece. We can file the vendor's license and EIN for you.
