Hi Ahmir, congratulations on Smoked Out Meatz! Weddings, office lunches, and family celebrations always need food, and a caterer with a signature dish gets booked again and again. The Louisiana sales tax registration comes first here, because it is what lets you collect sales tax and buy inventory wholesale. Here is what we will cover: how to structure Smoked Out Meatz, the tax IDs it needs, and the licenses that let you open in Shreveport, then a quick recap.
A BBQ trailer in Louisiana counts as a mobile food unit, which generally means a food permit and an inspection of the trailer before you serve anyone, plus a sales tax registration, because plates sold to customers are taxable. Ask about a commissary or prep kitchen requirement, since many mobile units must operate from one. Your trailer is also a vehicle with its own registration and insurance, and event organizers usually want to see all of it. Smoke has a way of attracting neighbors, so check zoning where you park. Register the Smoked Out Meatz name as well, and keep each event's sales tallied.
By the numbers: Banks, insurers, and tax forms will ask for your industry code. For a catering business it is NAICS 722320 (Caterers). With 1 employee planned, you are already creating jobs in Shreveport. That makes 8 items on your list.
Tip: Use contracts with deposits, final headcount deadlines, and cancellation terms.
To recap: Smoked Out Meatz in Shreveport, LA needs a sales tax permit, an LLC, a DBA, an EIN, a state employer ID, a business license, food permit and licensed kitchen, and food handler or manager certificate. Check them off one by one and you will open with confidence.

Here's How to Get Your NV Seller's Permit and Other permits and Registrations You May Need.
NV 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.
