Hi Sandy, K9 Kisses is an exciting name to see on a new business in Las Vegas. Pet parents happily spend on wholesome treats for their furry friends, and natural, homemade options stand out. Your first stop is the Nevada seller's permit: it makes your sales legal and your wholesale buying tax-free with a resale certificate. Here is what we will cover: how to structure K9 Kisses, the tax IDs it needs, and the licenses that let you open in Las Vegas, then a quick recap.
Dog treats are pet products rather than human food, so ask how Nevada treats them for tax before assuming the grocery exemption applies, but plan on a Nevada seller's permit because gift and craft show organizers will want to see it. Pet treat labeling rules apply, covering the ingredient list and net weight, and claims like all natural carry expectations. Baking them in a home kitchen usually works for pet products, but confirm local rules for a business. A Nevada state business license, a tidy sales log from each show, and a sample tray the dogs approve of will take you far.
By the numbers: Banks, insurers, and tax forms will ask for your industry code. For a homemade dog treat business it is NAICS 311111 (Dog and Cat Food Manufacturing). That makes 7 items on your list.
Tip: Check whether pet treats are allowed under your state's cottage food rules, since many exclude them.
To recap: K9 Kisses in Las Vegas, NV needs a sales tax permit, an LLC, a DBA, an EIN, a business license, commercial feed license, and label requirements. With the paperwork done, the fun part begins: serving your first customers.
We can file your seller's permit and the other registrations for you: start here.
Here's How to Get Your IL Seller's Permit and Other permits and Registrations You May Need.
IL 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.

Illinois Illinois' sales and use tax scheme includes four major divisions: Retailers' Occupation Tax, Use Tax, Service Occupation Tax and the Service Use Tax.
Each of these taxes is administered by the Illinois Department of Revenue. The Retailers' Occupation Tax is imposed upon persons engaged in the business of selling tangible personal property to purchasers for use or consumption. It is measured by the gross receipts of the retailer. The base rate of 6.25% is broken down as follows: 5% State, 1% City, 0.25% County. Local governments may impose additional tax resulting in a combined rate that ranges from the State minimum of 6.25% to 9.00% as of May 2013.
The Service Use Tax is imposed upon the privilege of using or consuming tangible personal property transferred as an incident to the provision of a service. An example would be a printer of business cards. The printer owes Service Occupation Tax on the value of the paper and ink transferred to the customer in the form of printed business cards. The serviceperson may satisfy this tax by paying Use Tax to his supplier of paper and ink or, alternatively, may charge Service Use Tax to the purchaser of the business cards and remit the amount collected as Service Occupation Tax on the serviceperson's tax return. The service itself, however, is not subject to tax.
Chicago charges a 2.25% food tax on regular groceries and drug purchases, and has an additional 3% soft drink tax (totaling 13.25%). An additional 1% is charged for prepared food and beverage purchases in the Loop and nearby neighborhoods (the area roughly bordered by Diversey Parkway, Ashland Avenue, the Stevenson Expressway, and Lake Michigan). Illinois requires residents who make purchases online or when traveling out-of-state to report those purchases on their state income tax form and pay use tax. In 2014, Illinois passed legislation which required Sales Tax (get Seller's Permit) to be collected by "catalog, mail-order and similar retailers along with online sellers... if they have sales of $10,000 or more in the prior year." Although the law went into effect January 1, 2015, retailers were given an additional month to comply with the legislation.[96]
