    Confused about permits, sales tax, etc
    I have been making and selling magnetic jewelry, a little online and just started selling at festivals and craft fairs this summer. Some gave me a tax reporting form used for those without a sales tax id but so far none of the festivals have asked for a sales tax id or permit but some that I am getting ready to apply to require it.

    Now, I'm confused:
    Do I need just a sales tax permit, or sales tax id, an EIN, or do I also have to register with the state as a business and get a business license. OR a tax permit and a DBA??

    I have been searching for information but it is confusing. I found this site but it just doesn't look legit to me.

    Arkansas Sales Tax Certificate
    Obtain a business sales tax resale number for only $25.Arkansas Department of Revenue - Arkansas Business Sales Tax Resale Certificate Number


    Can you tell me if I should use it or not or give whatever direction you think I need at this point.

    Thanks for your help.

    It would seem that you are asking about operating selling the jewelry in the State of Arkansas, correct?

    I would think that city officials where you will be operating your business would be able to give you the information that you need.

    I wouldn't put any information on the site that you have listed. I would instead consult individuals on the following site.

    Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration
