Texas
Sales Tax Resale Certificate Number 3 Reasons for
Obtaining a State Sales Tax Certificate are listed below.
-
Texas law requires
virtually every type of business to obtain a
Texas Sales Tax
Certificate Number. If you sell goods on eBay or the internet
and ship them to someone in the state you reside, then you must
collect sales tax from the buyer and pay the collected tax to
your state on a monthly or quarterly basis. If you sell less
than $4 million in annual sales, you do not have to collect or
pay sales tax on out-of-state sales.

Example: If you live in
Texas and you sell
or ship something to someone else in
Texas, then you
must collect and pay sales tax to the
State of
Texas. But, if you sell the same item to someone
outside the State of
Texas, you need not charge sales tax,
but must report the exempt tax sale to the State of Texas.
- You are able to purchase items without
paying Texas sales tax. When you buy an item that you plan to resell,
you can purchase it without paying
Texas sales tax.
Items must be for resale or qualified business use.
