Does a Connecticut 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 Connecticut costs $120 in state fees plus our $100.
What else does Connecticut require of an LLC?
Connecticut requires an annual report ($80 to the state) and a registered agent at all times, plus sales tax registration if you sell taxable goods.
Annual report
$80 to the state. Annual report, filed between January 1 and March 31. More on Connecticut annual reports.
Registered agent
Every Connecticut 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
Connecticut registers trade names at the county level, so there is no single state fee. Connecticut registers trade names with the town clerk. Contact us and we will quote your town by hand.
What else do people ask about Connecticut reseller permits?
$100 to the Connecticut Department of Revenue Services, plus our $50 to prepare and file it. $150 in total.
Usually not. A reseller permit registers you with the Connecticut Department of Revenue Services 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 Connecticut 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.
