Nevada Resale Certificate & Sales Tax Permit: How to Buy Wholesale and Sell Legally

Last updated: August 13, 2026

If you want to buy wholesale in Nevada and resell — on Amazon, in a store, or online — you need two things the state checks for: a Seller’s Permit and a resale certificate. Get them right and you buy inventory tax-free and collect sales tax legally; get them wrong and you overpay tax or risk penalties from Nevada Dept of Taxation.

What you need to sell legally in Nevada

In Nevada, the Nevada Seller’s Permit is issued by Nevada Dept of Taxation, registering you to collect the state’s 6.85% sales tax. A resale certificate then lets your suppliers sell to you tax-free for resale. Most resellers also form an LLC (~$425) and get an EIN. Nevada has no state income tax.

How to get set up: the steps

  1. Form your business entity (most sellers use an LLC).
  2. Get an EIN from the IRS.
  3. Register your sales-tax permit and issue resale certificates to suppliers.
  4. Start buying wholesale tax-free and selling.

Every step is a place people get stuck, overpay, or make a mistake that costs them their Amazon account. You don’t have to do any of it yourself.
