Certificate of Authority needed if selling hair online?

In New York State anybody that sell, tangible. That is stuff you can keep in your arms. Or services, things you do for others, like washing their hair, need a Sales Tax Vendor Registration or Certificate of Authority.

Today, Kerona asked me the question, if she had to get a certificate of Authority if selling hair online in New York?

Obligations as seller of hair

The certificate allows you as a hair business, to collect sales tax on taxable sales. But take care, at the end of the tax period you have to pay the sales tax to the Tax Authorities. My recommendation is to open a separate bank account to keep the received sales tax. Avoid using the Sales tax received for other purposes.

Make sure your bookkeeping keeps tracks of all purchases and sales. I also advice you open an online service account. This allows you to file your tax return in time. It will also provide you the necessary insight and information in time.

Tax Forms and Filing Information

If your hair and beauty business is registered as a Sales Tax vendor, you need a Certificate of Authority from the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance. This certificate gives you the authority to collect the required sales and use taxes.

The difference between the Sales Tax and Use Tax is:
Sales Tax
– applies to retail sales of certain tangible personal property and services.
Use Tax
– applies if you buy tangible personal property and services outside the state and use it within New York State.

If you make taxable sales, before you receive the Certificate of Authority, your business may be subject to penalties.

Thanks Kerona!

Kerona was very right to ask the question, because if you sell any product and you fail to register you might end up with substantial penalties.

There is no difference made between selling online or through a brick and mortar store.
But what does matter is if you offer services or sell goods.

There is also a difference between New York City and New York State tax. For example:
Beautician services, barbering, and hair restoring are subject only to New York City sales tax, so no State Tax.

Do not let the Tax hurt your business

Always check with a local tax advisor, or the tax authorities your rights and obligations. Legislation and rulings and tariffs are bound to change over time.

Importing hair from China to South Africa

Importing hair from China to South Africa

Home 9 Tag: tax
To sell your hair at the right price to make a nice profit, most likely you will search for a hair manufacturer in China. Chinese Hair manufacturers offer a great variety of hair at very attractive prices. Importing hair from China to South Africa will lead to a payment of import duties. These duties will increase the cost of the hair. This article will inform you on how to deal with these duties when you are importing hair from china to south Africa and what you can do to lower these duties to the lowest level possible.

Want a webstore that increases your hair sales?

Common procedure when you are importing hair from China to South Africa

You can import Hair products using various modes of transport, like air, sea, road, rail and post. This means if your Chinese Supplier ships the hair by DHL or Fedex, you can expect to pay import duties. The importer, you, must declare to Customs what hair they have brought into South Africa and by what means of transport. If the hair arrives in South Africa via the post, a different process is followed.

The South African Customs Administration will check the declaration of the hair against the documents produced. Think of an invoice from the Chinese Supplier or a bill of lading and certificates of origin. The certificate’s of origin are important for the tariff. The administration can exam the goods if necessary and collect duties and value Added Tax (VAT). They can also ask you for additional information.

What is the value of the hair?

If you are importing hair from China to South Africa, the Chinese supplier will have to make up an invoice. The value on this invoice, for the hair purchased, is one, but not the only, valuation the customs will use to calculate the import duties.
Customs has to follow six methods of valuation which must be applied in strict hierarchical order. Thus, if the transaction value cannot be ascertained in terms of method 1, method 2 must be tried, and so on.
The methods, in order of precedence, are:
1. The transaction value of the hair, i.e. the price actually paid or payable (invoice)
2. The transaction value of identical goods
3. The transaction value of similar goods
4. The “deductive” method (where the customs value is derived from the selling price of the imported goods in the Republic)
5. The “computed” method (where the value is derived from the built-up cost of the imported goods);
6. The so-called “fall back” method, being one of the other five methods applied more flexibly.
The price on the invoice must be based on the actual value of the hair.

What should be the price on the invoice?

In doubt the price paid, or invoiced, for the hair is correct, for example too low, the customs have the obligation to check the prices of the same hair products imported before. If all requirements are full filled, method 1, or the transaction value method will be used.
The invoice must enable the customs to determine the:
• actual amounts paid for the service or goods;
• role and function of the parties involved (importer, middleman, manufacturer and supplier) and
• actual services performed or paid for

What if you agree with the Chinese Supplier to write down a lower price?

If you would ask the Chinese Supplier to write the lowest possible price on the invoice, and pay in a separate payment process another, most likely higher price, there is a chance customs will value the goods at a higher price.
To find the value they have the other alternative valuation methods as mentioned. But once they decided to use another method, They can not go back to a previous valuation method in case this value is lower.

Receiving hair in the post

If you are importing hair from China to South Africa by mail, it will be most likely registered mail. This will allow you to use a track and trace system.

What if you buy from a marketplace like Amazon?

Chinese Hair suppliers are active on Amazon and Aliexpress too. You don’t have to register as an importer if you buy from Amazon or Aliexpress if you meet the following conditions.

• You are allowed only three transactions (of less than R50 000 each) during any calendar year;
• You are only allowed to import goods for home consumption or personal use, not for resale or any other business;
• You must be located in South Africa;
• Your identity number/ Passport number or taxpayer reference number must be entered in the field provided in the declaration form.
Should the purchase falls outside these limitations, you will have to register and obtain an importer or exporter code.

What if you claim the purchase is a gift?

You can twice a calendar year receive a free gift. The gift should come from a person from flesh and blood and given to another person.
The value should not exceed R 1 400 per gift and should not be expected by the receiver.

Record keeping

If you import hair by post you must keep the following for record purposes for a period of five years:
Books, accounts and documents in respect of all transactions relating to the Rules for the purpose of any acquittal procedure; and
Any data related to such documents created by means of a computer.
The five year period is calculated from the end of the calendar year in which the document was created, lodged or required.

You can find the offices of Customs on the website or call the SARS Contact Centre on 0800 00 7277.

Reduce Self Employment Taxes with a Corporation or LLC

In general, if you are the proprietor or partners you usually pay periodic self employment taxes on your share of the company’s profits. However, the United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) taxes employees of corporations and Limited Liability Companies, taxed as corporations, differently.
A corporation pays its share of employment taxes and withholds certain required income and employment taxes from employees’ salaries. Corporations and their workers pay these taxes only on the reasonable salaries paid to employees, not on the total profits of the corporation. Executed properly, this strategy may reduce self employment taxes.

How to save Self Employment Tax

Savannah , a sole proprietor of Hair Extensions USA, has a net income of $60,000. She pays, $60,000 x 15.3% = $9,180, in self-employment taxes.
Now Savannah forms a corporation. SHe pays herself a reasonable salary of $40,000 and leaves the other $20,000 in the business for future expansion. She pays Social Security and Medicare taxes (self employment tax) only on her salary, $40,000 x 15.3% = $6,120
By incorporating, Savannah saves $3,060 in self-employment tax.
Remember, the IRS still taxes profits not deducted as salaries at corporate tax rates. Your accountant can help you determine a strategy that will result in the greatest overall tax savings for your business.

My Hair Extensions LLC

My Hair Extensions LLC

Home 9 Tag: tax

LLC or other legal structure?

If you start a new hair extensions business, this means more than just finding a hair supplier and sell to your clients. It also entails dealing with various amounts of paperwork and compliance at the state, federal and local levels. On top of that, it is good to be prepared if your business grows from home based to a greater and more complex enterprise. It’s time to consider the incorporation of a LLC.

To help you to protect your business and personal affairs, as from the beginning of this new venture, we share with a small checklist. This checklist is initially valid for US citizens, who think of an LLC, but can also be of great help for hair extensions business owners in other countries.

Checklist

1. Write a hair extensions business plan. Form goals and objectives for your hair extensions store. Start with a detailed outline of what you plan to accomplish, the market you want to focus on, the extensions you want to sell and how you make your money.

2. Think of the legal business structure. Setting your company up as a corporation or LLC are popular entity structures for many small businesses. An LLC protects owners’ personal assets from business debts and liabilities. Additionally, incorporating an LLC can provide credibility and tax benefits. If you are not sure what legal structure fits best, go to the special Wizard

3. Obtain start-up capital. Whether you use your own savings or obtain loans, starting a business requires money, to find suppliers, to buy hair, to setup a web store or to market your business. The loan process can take months to check off your business start-up checklist, so start early. Lenders often request a completed business plan prior to approval of funding.

4. Obtain a Federal Employer Identification Number. Otherwise known as an EIN, Incorporated businesses that hire employees must have one of these. They are issued by the IRS or tax authorities.

5.Satisfy business licensing requirements. Most state, county, and local governments require businesses to obtain licensing before they begin to operate.

6.Get a website. A website is an essential item to complete on your small business start-up checklist in today’s business world of internet searches and social media. Register a URL that is memorable and relevant to your company and/or industry. Not having an effective website eliminates opportunities for new customers and potential profit.

7.Develop business collateral. Businesses use customized letterhead, cards, and forms with their company name and legal form (LLC), logo and website for marketing and credibility.

8.Open a bank account and merchant account. To protect their corporate or LLC veil, businesses must maintain separate business and personal accounts and records. Establish a separate business bank account so that your personal assets are not co-mingled with business funds. Banks may also require an Employer Identification Number (EIN) in order to open a business checking account.

9.Identify where to get help. Know where and when to seek advice from other sources, such as attorneys and accountants or marketing experts, to assist you with specific questions about your business. Establish a board of advisors or mentors to help you along the way. This is one most entrepreneurs tend to leave off their new business checklist. You can use the experience of HowToSellHairExtensions to get your own mentor.

10.Follow government rules. Operating a business means satisfying ongoing government and legal requirements to maintain the company’s good standing.

What else to think about before you start selling hair

The Company Corporation provides small businesses incorporation & LLC formation services

We found 10 other things to think about, to make the launch, growth and future of your business and personal wealth a success.

1. Appoint a Registered Agent. Businesses must maintain an address for service of process where legal documents can be received.

2.Satisfy insurance requirements. Incorporating or forming an LLC does not provide your hair store with business insurance. Most companies obtain general business insurance from an insurance provider. Corporations and LLC s that hire employees also typically obtain unemployment and workers compensation insurance.

3.Complete additional filings as needed. Companies that expand to do business outside their original state of incorporation or LLC formation generally register in those additional states. Amendments can also be filed if the information listed on the formation document, like the legal name of the company or address, changes.

4.Register “Doing Business As” names. Will your corporation or LLC do business under a name other than its legal name filed with the Secretary of State? If so, it must file a DBA (Doing Business As) name.

5.Protect your company’s name. Businesses file names on a per-state basis, so other companies may be using the same or a similar name in other states. Conducting a trademark search ensures that your unique company name isn’t already in use. Make sure to perform this check before you claim a domain name for your website.

6.Draft internal documents for the business. Corporations are governed by their internal bylaws, whereas LLCs are governed by an operating agreement.

7.Establish a business presence. Identify a location for the business and establish a business address.

8.Establish proper accounting procedures. Paying your taxes is only part of the picture when it comes to setting up your business. Whether you need help setting up your chart of accounts, have questions about completing a specific tax form, or need answers to tax questions be sure to get an Advisor.

9.Get a business credit card. A business credit card helps separate your professional and personal expenses and can help you protect your personal assets from business liabilities.

10.Get started. Schedule an opening day for your business and let us know so we can tell the world. Giving yourself a goal helps keep things on track and can increase your productivity.
