Your RV sales lot checklist, item by item

Q: Before I open a RV sales lot, what paperwork may I need?

A: Here is the paperwork map for your RV sales lot. Every item says MAY, because what applies depends on how the business is set up, and sorting that out is our job. It also lists the personal license or trade license of the person doing the work, because a business license alone does not cover that.

1. Business license: A business license for an RV seller MAY ask whether you sell new or used units, how many are displayed on a lot, and whether you also offer service.
2. Sales tax permit: A sales tax permit MAY be needed because vehicle sales are generally taxable, and trade-ins, titles and financed sales each have their own reporting.
3. Professional or trade license: Salesperson dealer qualification: Sales staff may need a personal salesperson license or qualification, obtained after a background check and, in some cases, a training course.
4. Dealer license: Selling recreational vehicles to the public usually requires a dealer license, often with a surety bond and a fixed place of business.
5. Title and registration handling: Dealers may be authorized to transfer titles, which comes with record keeping rules.
6. Surety bond: A bond protecting buyers from fraud or unpaid titles may be required before a dealer license is issued.
7. Lot inspection: The sales lot, signage and sales room may be checked for compliance before approval.
8. Company papers: A DBA, an LLC or a tax ID number MAY make sense for your RV sales lot, and we prepare all of these documents on this site, so everything can be ordered in one place.

Our service fee stays put. A business license order that also needs a home occupation permit or another permit still carries one service fee for us. What we do not cover are the upfront annual tax or application fees the govt charges; we find those applications and fill them out.

The upside, with all five senses

RVs sell freedom, and the smell of new upholstery plus the gleam of a polished trailer makes shoppers dream about the open road.

Opening day, imagined

Wendell polished the chrome of his first trailer for Roadrunner Rigs & Rentals and anxiously looked for the bond form.

The reason owners form an LLC

A financing deal collapses and a buyer demands a refund plus damages, which could reach your home.

✔ Biz Structure

You can choose to be a(n) Rv Retail :

Sole Proprietor,
LLC,
Corporation or
Partnership.
After you decide and select your business entity, you need licensing.

✔ Biz License

Granbury Business Tax Registration ( Business License)
All businesses including home, online or mobile BUSINESS need a BUSINESS license because they are BUSINESSES.

✔ DBA Biz Name

A(n) Rv Retail business using a DBA Doing Business As Trade Name in Hood County , i.e., starting businesses using a company name other than the legal (given name) owner's name, need a(n) DBA Doing Business As Trade Name Registration. For example, you start a(n) Rv Retail business and you call it "Ultra Rv Retail Co". You will need to file a trade firm name for it.

✔ Seller Permit

Also, keep in mind that in TX though, a business license and a DBA is necessary for most businesses but if your business sells any taxable items, you will need a sales tax ID number. (A.K.A state id, wholesale, resale, reseller certificate, about $39 for most states).
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

If you are thinking of hiring help, you will need a state employer ID and an IRS number employer ID. 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 Granbury, Incorporate in TX or form a(n) TX LLC .

If you will set up a corporation or form an LLC, you will not have to file a DBA (Doing Business As) unless your corproration or LLC name will be different that the busienss name you will trade under. Businesses that use the full legal name of the owner as a business name do not need to register an assumed business name. So, for example, your name is "John X Doe" and you use that as a business name.

✔ Incorporation

If you do form an Other llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Rv Retail business instead of just filing a fictitious business name (dba), it will help you avoid legal and financial personal liability arising out of business transactions and you will not have to register the Granbury business name. Instead of filing a Hood County fictitious business name (our service fee includes dba business name filing and legal paper publication) you can elect to incorporate in TX or form an TX LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes bylaws and LLC operating agreement)..
