, Ryan.

Jewelry Business

Question: I make Jewelry and have a page online for people to buy Jewelry in Newport TN.

A: You need a business license as well as a seller's permit in TN. Jewelry may be made from a wide range of materials, but gemstones, precious metals, beads, and shells have been widely used.

Depending on the culture and times jewelry may be appreciated as a status symbol, for its material properties, its patterns, or for meaningful symbols. Jewelry has been made to adorn nearly every body part, from hairpins to toe rings. Many items of jewelry, such as brooches and buckles, originated as purely functional items but evolved into decorative items as their functional requirement diminished.

In creating jewelry, gemstones, coins, or other precious items are often used, and they are typically set into precious metals. Alloys of nearly every metal known have been encountered in jewelry.

The term "fashion" men's clothing, generally, and the study of it but fashion jewelry refers specifically to jewelry. In addition, fashion jewelry references anything that is the current trend in look and the jewelry or garments of a person.

I want to buy jewelry wholesale and sell retail online and from home as homebased business. My business will be selling beaded bracelets. I will be selling them on Etsy. The location will be my home.

Answer: Hi Felecia, here is how to go about getting a GA Business License Registration.

First, you need LLC, DBA, or Corporation, so you can register your business name "Desirable Creation By Felecia LLC," because it is required to protect consumers from fly-by-night companies.

Second, obtaining a seller's permit will help you buy the Jewelry materials wholesale from wholesalers. E.g., if you have to pay 7% tax for an $1000.00 purchase, that is a $70 savings.

Third, all businesses, including Jewelry businesses, are required to obtain a Business License because tax, health, and location clearances must be determined.

Finally, your business must have an EIN if: a limited liability company (LLC), a corporation or partnership, or if you are a filer of an employment tax return, excise tax return, alcohol, tobacco or firearms return.
If an employer, your business needs a state EIN as well.

Seller's Permit

✔ Federal EIN

Note: All businesses need a federal tax ID number except sole proprietors that are not employers and are not independent contractors.
An independent contractor is a self employed business person that receives more than $600 per year from anyone of his or her clients.
IRS rule: The client must issue a 1099 form to the independent contractor and the independent contractor must have a federal tax ID. However, even sole owners may obtain a federal ID and use it as a business tax ID instead of using their own social security number as a business tax ID number.
However, all other licenses that apply to sole proprietors as discussed here are requited regardless of getting a federal tax ID number.

✔ State EIN

In addition you will need a federal and a state EIN if you will hire employees. I.e., a TX Federal Tax Id Number ($29) and a(n) TX State Employer Tax Number

✔ L L C

Instead of filing a fictitious business name DBA Filing (about $49 plus state and legal newspaper publication fees) in Katy, Incorporate in TX or form a(n) TX LLC .

Filing a DBA is not required if you will set up an LLC or form a Corporation. There is a cicrcumstance that you may not need to register a trade name and that is when you use your full name as a business name if you use your full legal name as a trade name.
Also note that even using your first and last name may not help you avoid filing a DBA if the name has a suffix such as "& sons" etc.

✔ Incorporation

If you do form an Online Selling Stuff llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Jewelry Business business instead of just filing a fictitious business name (dba), it will help you avoid personal liability from wrongs arising from your business dealings and you will not have to file the Katy business name. Instead of just registering your Fort Bend County assumed business name (our fee includes assumed business name registration and legal newspaper publication) you can choose to setup a corporation in TX or form an TX LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes bylaws for the corporation and Limited Liability operating agreement for the LLC that is required to open a business bank account). .
