REQUIRED LICENSES
Legal Structure
Whether an online, home, store, concession stand or a mobile cart, you will need to first select among sole owner/proprietor, partnership, LLC or corporation, all of which also require a General Business License (not a specific license to your type of business) as well. If your trade name is a business name other than your full personal legal name, you will need to file a DBA . For instance, your name is John Doe, and you do business as Best Widgets By John, the name must be registered with a DBA Biz Name because it is not your full legal name. Also, note that whatever item that you sell or lease and it is an item that can be touched (i.e., tangible such as equipment, toys, merchandise, electronics, prepared food) requires a state sales tax ID ( Sellers Permit ) to either buy or sell the items or products wholesale and or sell them retail. If you are hiring workers anytime soon, you will need a Federal EIN and a State EIN (employer identification number). Other instances that you will need a federal tax ID are: if you are a partnership, an independent contractor, and a corporation or an LLC . You can also obtain a federal tax ID as a sole proprietor and use it as a business tax ID in the place of a social security number. However, you will still need other registrations, such as licenses, an assumed business name DBA, and tax IDs as described above. Finally, even one person, sole owner/proprietors working from home or just online can form a LLC or incorporate, in which case, they will not need to file a DBA. |

If you are thinking of hiring help, you will need a tax id called a state EIN and an IRS tax id number called an EIN Employer ID Number.
I.e., a TX Federal Tax Id Number and a(n) TX State Employer Tax Number
Instead of filing a fictitious business name DBA Filing in
Houston, Incorporate in TX or form a(n) TX LLC
THERE ARE 4 TAX IDS: A federal tax ID, a Sales Tax ID, a State employer Tax ID, and a Business Tax Registration ID.
Starting businesses need a tax registration business ID ( AKA business license or home occupation permit.) A sole owner can obtain a federal tax ID number (recommended) to use it as a business tax ID. This is because a business must be identified with a business tax ID. If it does not have a federal tax ID a sole proprietor uses his or her social security card to identify the business. However, if the business is a sole proprietor, it does not need a tax ID unless it is an employer, in which case it will need a federal ID and a State Employer ID (employer identification number).
If the new small business will sell or lease any merchandise equipment or sell any items wholesale or retail or buy wholesale it will need a sales tax ID number also called a resale ID, a state sales tax ID, wholesale ID or resale license.
Partnerships need at least a federal tax ID number and a fictitious business name registration. Finally, anyone, even one person can be an LLC or corporation.
