What Is a US Resale Certificate?
A Resale Certificate (also called a Reseller Permit, Sales Tax Exemption Certificate, or Wholesale License) is an official document issued by state tax authorities allowing registered businesses to purchase merchandise from suppliers, manufacturers, and distributors without paying state sales tax, provided those items will be resold to retail customers.
In the United States, sales tax is designed to be paid only once — by the end consumer. Without a resale certificate, suppliers are legally obligated to charge you 4% to 10% sales tax on every inventory order, directly cutting into your profit margins and tying up operating capital.
Completely eliminates double taxation on inventory orders
Mandatory prerequisite for opening accounts with US distributors
Accepted across major e-commerce platforms like Amazon, Walmart & Shopify
How Resale Exemption Works
Three straightforward stages of tax exemption for retail goods:
1. Buy Wholesale (0% Sales Tax)
Present certificate to US distributors & pay zero state sales tax on bulk orders.
2. Stock Inventory Tax-Free
Ship goods directly to Amazon FBA or your 3PL warehouse with lower upfront capital.
3. Retail Sale to End Consumer
Sales tax is collected only at the final point of retail purchase from the end consumer.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about US Resale Certificates, tax exemptions, and compliance for non-residents.
What is the difference between a Resale Certificate and a Sales Tax Permit?
A Sales Tax Permit (also called a Seller’s Permit) is issued by the state Department of Revenue granting your US business authorization to collect sales tax from consumers. A Resale Certificate, on the other hand, is the document you present to your suppliers and wholesalers certifying that you are purchasing items exclusively for resale, allowing them to waive sales tax on your invoice. In many states, obtaining your Sales Tax Permit automatically qualifies you to issue Resale Certificates.
Who needs a US Resale Certificate?
Any business entity purchasing goods in the United States with the intention of reselling them should have a Resale Certificate. This includes Amazon FBA sellers, Walmart Marketplace merchants, Shopify store owners, wholesale distributors, retail arbitrageurs, and dropshippers. Without it, you will be charged 4% to 10% sales tax on every product you source.
Can non-US residents obtain a Resale Certificate from Bangladesh?
Yes, absolutely! As long as you have a registered US LLC or Corporation and an official IRS EIN (Employer Identification Number), you are legally entitled to register with state departments of revenue and obtain Resale Certificates. You do not need a US Social Security Number (SSN), US visa, or physical presence in the United States. Finset Formation handles the entire application remotely.
Can I use my Resale Certificate on Amazon, Walmart, or with wholesale suppliers?
Yes. Once your certificate and state permit number are issued, you can upload them directly into the Amazon Tax Exemption Program (ATEP) or Walmart Tax Exemption Program to buy inventory tax-free. You can also provide copies directly to brand owners, manufacturers, and liquidation distributors to open wholesale accounts.
Can online e-commerce businesses and dropshippers get a Resale Certificate?
Yes. Online retailers and dropshippers are fully eligible. When dropshipping, providing your resale certificate to your supplier proves that you will collect sales tax from the end buyer (or that the marketplace will collect it via marketplace facilitator laws), so your supplier will not charge you tax on the fulfillment order.
How long does it take to get a Resale Certificate?
Most state applications are processed within 3 to 5 business days after submitting your complete company documents (LLC Articles and EIN). In states with instant online registration systems, approval can happen even faster. Our team immediately reviews your files and submits applications without delay.
Can I use one Resale Certificate across multiple US states?
Many states accept the standard Multistate Tax Commission (MTC) Uniform Sales & Use Tax Certificate for inventory purchases. However, specific high-volume states—such as California, Florida, New York, and Texas—mandate their own state-issued permits if you maintain inventory in local warehouses (such as Amazon FBA fulfillment centers). Finset Formation advises you on the exact state mix required for your business.
