About This Service

A reseller certificate (also called a sales tax permit or resale certificate) allows you to purchase inventory for resale without paying sales tax. This is essential for maintaining healthy margins.

How Reseller Certificates Work

When you buy products wholesale for resale, you shouldn't pay sales tax on those purchases. Instead, you collect sales tax from your end customers. The reseller certificate exempts you from paying tax to your suppliers.

When You Need a Reseller Certificate

  • Wholesale Purchases: Buy from US wholesalers and distributors
  • Trade Shows: Purchase inventory at trade shows
  • Amazon FBA: States where you have inventory (nexus)
  • Dropshipping: Needed if you have nexus in supplier's state

State-by-State Registration

Reseller certificates are issued by state. If you have nexus (tax presence) in multiple states, you need a certificate in each state. Common nexus triggers include inventory storage, employees, and significant sales.
