State Reseller Certificate FAQ
Everything you need to know about submitting the correct documentation for your LUCY wholesale application.
What is a State Reseller Certificate?
A State Reseller Certificate is a sales tax document issued by your state's department of revenue or taxation. It allows a business to purchase products for resale without paying sales tax at the time of purchase. This document must match your legal business name and address.
Why does LUCY require a State Reseller Certificate?
As a wholesale supplier, LUCY is required to verify that products are being purchased for resale. A valid State Reseller Certificate is necessary for tax compliance and is required to approve wholesale accounts.
Does a tobacco license replace a resale certificate?
No. A tobacco or cigarette license is required to sell nicotine products but it does not replace a State Reseller Certificate. You must submit both documents if applicable.
What if I do not have a State Reseller Certificate?
You can apply for a resale certificate through your state's department of revenue or taxation website. Many states allow you to apply online at no cost.
