Do an Artist Need a Tax Id?
Do I have to be a formal business in order to make Art and sell them online or from a store?
A: Yes, you need to become a business to sell Art? The tax id you need is called a seller's permit. There is also a federal id and a state employer tax as well as a business tax registration tax id called a business license required for some coounties in texas. However, you definitely need the seller's permit and you need to register the assumed business name "Pick A Sow Art Pieces," as a dba business name filing.
Thus, you first, select your business structure: Sole Proprietor, Partnership, LLC or Corporation. All businesses must be identified either with a federal tax ID or the ss# of the owner if sole proprietorship. All other business entities, such as LLC, Corp, Partnerships, need a federal tax ID number. In addition, if the business sells any merchandise whether wholesale or retail or if it leases equipment, it will need a sales tax ID number.
Then, a sellers permit is required to buy your craft materials wholesale and sell retail if you sell Artist merchandise wholesale or retail.
If you are an employer, i.e., if you hire anyone to help you with Artist or Art Items making, you will need a federal employer Number and a State Employer Number.
Users of a trade name will need a fictitious business name filing. For example, if you name your Artist or Art Items business "Van Gough Art Items," you will need to officially register that business name.
Finally, you have the option or incorporating or forming an LLC for your Artist or Art Items business.
