Washington
Sales Tax Resale Certificate Number 3 Reasons for
Obtaining a State Sales Tax Certificate are listed below.
-
Washington law requires
virtually every type of business to obtain a
Washington Sales Tax
Certificate Number. If you sell goods on eBay or the internet
and ship them to someone in the state you reside, then you must
collect sales tax from the buyer and pay the collected tax to
your state on a monthly or quarterly basis. If you sell less
than $4 million in annual sales, you do not have to collect or
pay sales tax on out-of-state sales.

but must report the exempt tax sale to the State of Washington.

paying Washington sales tax. When you buy an item that you plan to resell,
