In the United States, when you buy products to resell them, you should not pay sales tax on that purchase. However, suppliers will charge you that tax (between 6% and 10%) unless you present a valid Resale Certificate.
This document, issued by the State Department of Revenue (like the Florida Department of Revenue), certifies that you are an authorized reseller and exempts you from paying taxes on the acquisition of your merchandise.
If you buy $10,000 USD in inventory without this certificate, you could be paying up to $700 - $900 USD extra in unnecessary taxes. By having your certificate, that money stays in your pocket, directly increasing your net profit margin.
Mandatory so your wholesale suppliers don't charge you tax and to correctly configure your Seller Central account.
If you buy large volumes to export or resell to retail stores, the exemption is critical for your final price.
Allows you to buy at stores like Walmart or Home Depot without paying taxes, if you present your certificate at customer service.
Often exempts taxes on the purchase of raw materials that will be incorporated into the final product.
It's not just getting the paper, it's understanding fiscal responsibility.
First we register your company with the State Department of Revenue to obtain your Sales Tax account number.
The state issues the physical "Annual Resale Certificate". We receive it, digitize it, and deliver it to you.
Note: By having this certificate, you acquire the obligation to declare sales taxes (monthly or quarterly), even if it is $0. We explain how.
