As the majority of Ebay Home Business businesses, 99.9%, you will need an occupational business license even if you obtain a free LLC
filing or you incorporate. In addition, you may need a federal tax ID number, and if you sell any merchandise, you will need a resale tax ID number. Also note that all LLC
s need an Ebay Home Business occupational business license. Also, if the LLC
has more than one member, or you will file a tax return for the LLC
as a corporation as opposed as a disregarded entity, you will need a federal tax ID number for the LLC

You can choose to be a(n) :
- Sole Proprietor,

After you decide and select your business entity, you need licensing.
Gresham Business Tax Registration (
Business License)
All businesses including home, online or mobile BUSINESS need a BUSINESS license because they are BUSINESSES.
|
A(n) business doing business under an assumed business name in
Multnomah County
i.e. you are a business with a trade name other than the owner's legal (full name) name are required to get a(n)
assumed business name certificate.
E.g. you venture into a(n)
business and you give it a trade name such as "Excellence
& Associates". You will need to register an assumed business name certificate.
|
In addition note that in
OR
you may also need a seller's permit if you sell merchandise that is taxable.
(A.K.A state id, wholesale, resale,
reseller certificate, about $39 for most states).
Seller's Permit
Note: All businesses need a federal tax ID number except sole proprietors that are not employers and are not independent contractors.
An independent contractor is a self employed business person that receives more than $600 per year from anyone of his or her clients.
IRS rule: The client must issue a 1099 form to the independent contractor and the independent contractor must have a federal tax ID.
However, even sole owners may obtain a federal ID and use it as a business tax ID instead of using their own social security number as a
business tax ID number. However, all other licenses that apply to sole proprietors as discussed here are requited regardless of getting
a federal tax ID number.
In addition you will need a federal and a state EIN if you will hire employees.
I.e., a OR Federal Tax Id Number ($29) and a(n) OR State Employer Tax Number
Instead of filing a fictitious business name DBA Filing (about $49 plus state and legal newspaper publication fees) in
Gresham, Incorporate in OR or form a(n) OR LLC .
You have a choice to file a DBA or form an LLC or incorporate.
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.
If you do form an Retail Trade llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your business instead of just filing a fictitious business name (dba),
that insurs that you don't have personal liability for debts and civile liabililty arising from your business dealings and you will not have to record the Gresham business name.
Instead of just registering your Multnomah County assumed business name (our fee includes assumed business name registration and legal newspaper publication) you can choose to setup a corporation in
OR or form an OR LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes required documents such as bylaws for the corporation and Limited Liability operating agreement for the LLC). .
