The following are the tax numbers you need to start your Tacoma small company.

   On the other hand you may also need a sales tax ID AKA seller's permit if you sell merchandise that is taxable.  (A.K.A WAseller's permit, state id, wholesale, resale, reseller certificate).

    In addition you will need a federal and a state EIN if you will hire employees. I.e., a WA Federal Tax Id Number and a(n) WA  State Employer Tax Number  

    Instead of filing a fictitious business name DBA Filing in Tacoma, Incorporate in WA  or form a(n) WA LLC 

Actually there is not just one but four tax ID numbers. First there is a general business tax registration ID. Second there is a state reseller number. Third there is a state EIN number and a federal EIN number.

New businessess whether home or other types will need a general tax registration that could be a business permit and or license. Sole proprietors just need that plus perhaps a registration of a business name certificate if in fact the business is using an assumed business name. E.g. if the business is called "Superior Medical Billing" it will need to file a DBA. Other than that employer sole owners will need both a federal ein and a state ein and if selling any type of widgets such as items on eBay or Etsy will need a state reseller number also called a seller ID or resale number. Finally starting businesses must choose a business legal/tax structure. There are 4 major business entity structures: 1. A sole proprietorship a partnership an LLC and a corporation. You can select any one of them. If you select a sole proprietorship you will need at a minimum a business tax registration (business license) and a trade business name registration.

Filing a DBA is not required if you will set up an LLC or form a Corporation. Partnerships will need to obtain a federal tax id number. There is a cicrcumstance that you may not need to register a trade name and that is when you use your full name as a business name if you use your full legal name as a trade name. Also note that even using your first and last name may not help you avoid filing a DBA if the name has a suffix such as "& sons" etc.
  • FIRST STEP: Ensure that you secure related tools such as specific equipment .
  • SECOND STEP:   determine the Tacoma business location (you home can be a business location).

  • THIRD STEP: Obtain tax ID number(s) and licenses. Here is the minimum registrations you need:

  • If you want to improve your business income set up a corporate entity such as a corporation or LLC. It will look better than a sole ownership and or a general partnership. You can offset personal losses against the profits of an LLC or S corporation.
