If you want to buy wholesale in Florida and resell — on Amazon, in a store, or online — you need to register for Florida sales tax and hold a resale certificate. Get it right and you buy inventory tax-free and collect sales tax legally; get it wrong and you overpay tax or risk penalties from Florida Dept of Revenue.
In Florida, you register for sales tax with Florida Dept of Revenue, which lets you collect the state’s 6% sales tax. A resale certificate then lets your suppliers sell to you tax-free for resale. Most resellers also form an LLC ($125) and get an EIN. Florida has no state income tax.
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.
