What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New York
I'm looking into starting a business selling custom woodwork over ebay. I've read a few articles on this and just a little confused how this works in New York. Do I still have to pay sales taxes and apply for a reseller license if the product is made by hand, by me. Also I was wondering if I have to pay any state sales taxes if I don't have any presence in the state. Is it pretty much just registering as a Sole Proprietor and then paying your taxes?
I think a lot of articles just include a bunch of other stuff, like one said I need to get an Employer ID number? Is that even needed if I'm a sole proprietor with no employees?
If anybody owns a legal, legitimate ebay store, I'd want to hear from you.
