Does a Colorado reseller permit protect your personal assets?
No. A permit registers you for sales tax; it does not put anything between your business and your personal assets. If that matters to you, forming an LLC in Colorado costs $50 in state fees plus our $100.
What else does Colorado require of an LLC?
Colorado requires an annual report ($25 to the state) and a registered agent at all times, plus sales tax registration if you sell taxable goods.
Annual report
$25 to the state. Colorado periodic reports can be filed starting two months before your entity's periodic report month and through two months after it without penalty. Find your periodic report month on your entity's Summary page at the Colorado Secretary of State. The state fee is $25 and the late filing penalty is $50. Colorado requires the periodic report to be filed electronically on its website. More on Colorado annual reports.
Registered agent
Every Colorado LLC has to name one. It can be you at no cost if you have a street address in the state. Ours is $99 a year and optional, with no first year that quietly becomes a renewal.
Trade name, if you use one
$20 to the state, plus our $50.
What else do people ask about Colorado reseller permits?
$16 to the Colorado Department of Revenue, plus our $50 to prepare and file it. $66 in total.
Usually not. A reseller permit registers you with the Colorado Department of Revenue to collect and remit sales tax and to buy inventory for resale without paying tax on it. A business license is a separate permission to operate, often issued by a city or county. A few states fold both into one application; most do not.
You register where you have nexus, which is a tax question about where your business has enough presence or sales to owe the state something. Physical presence in Colorado creates it; so can crossing a sales threshold from out of state. That is a question for your accountant, not for us. Most sellers start with their home state and add others as they grow.
