How to Get a Reseller License in Indiana

Map of IN

To sell goods in Indiana as a reseller, you must obtain a Registered Retail Merchant Certificate (RRMC), which serves as your sales tax permit. Registration is completed online through INBiz, Indiana's official business portal. The registration fee is $25. After submitting your application, expect email confirmation within 3-5 business days, with your physical certificate arriving in 7-10 business days.

You will need:

  • Federal Employer Identification Number (EIN)
  • Business entity details
  • Owner information including Social Security numbers
  • Estimated monthly taxable sales

Once you have your Retail Merchant Certificate, you can issue an Indiana Resale Certificate (Form ST-105) to make tax-exempt purchases on items intended for resale. The RRMC must be renewed every two years at no additional charge. Indiana charges a 7% sales tax rate, and you must display one RRMC certificate at each business location.
