Hello from Canada


Hello from Canada

Postby ZonkaRacing » 08/10/2009 05:12

I'm 18 and a current sophmore in business school. Looking to sell on ebay and other sites although I still havent decided on what to sell but am hoping that salehoo will help me get going.

I noticed that some suppliers require a reseller ID and was wondering where I can get one in Ontario, CA and whats involved?

I cant wait to learn more about online buying and selling and getting involved!

Hi ZonkaRacing,

Welcome to SaleHoo! It's great to have you on board. Exactly what you need to get a sales tax ID varies by location. You may need:

* To be a business entity. This means you are a company or sole proprietor. Being a sole proprietor means you are working for yourself under your own name. If you are working for yourself (which is how most people get started selling online), just fill in your own name under your business trading name. Being a company means that you have registered a company under a trading name.

* To have a Federal Tax ID number.

So, where do you get your sellers' permit (Sales Tax ID)?

You can try Googling it – Most states and provinces have an online form on their website these days. You may be charged a small fee, this varies from state to state, but it's usually around $50.

If you can’t find any information online on how to get a seller permit, then just contact or visit your local County Clerk Office.

You can learn more about this in our free education area:
