I'm registering to collect sales tax in several states where my dropshippers are. The most difficult one so far is Missouri. Not only do I have to register to collect sales tax, I have to post a bond for the privilege, and in filling out the registration application now I also see that I need to register my company with the MO secretary of states office and get a charter number. With a fee attached, of course. I haven't yet opened my shop for business and am trying to get all the legalities done, but it seems like the more I try to follow the rules, the more landmines they put in my path!
Anyway, anybody here work with a Missouri dropshipper care to give me pointers? Do I really need to register my Virginia LLC in Missouri just because I work with a dropshipper there?
