What comes after registering: you must file a return on time even when you owe nothing, unless you registered only as a wholesale merchant, and the page gives the rates by county, the paperwork for buying items for resale without paying tax, the records you must keep and the penalties for filing or paying late. Read the county chart and the resale section before you place your first supply order or set a price list.
Do this week
Look up your county's total rate in the page's chart and add it to your market price sheet, so you know what a customer pays at the table.
