The vast majority of flea market vendors have no license of any kind.

But if you want to create an actual small business and reap the tax and small business loan benefits of an actual small business, you would be well-advised to apply for a business license and a tax or resale license or permit.

A resale or tax license or permit means the state wants you to collect sales tax on every sale and submit it to the state once per quarter, just like any retail store. (The cost of the permit would be a business deduction.)

Having a business license would allow you to form an LLC.

Forming an LLC (limited liability corporation) is the easiest to form. A single proprieter type of business would be well to become an LLC. Becoming an LLC protects your personal belongings from liability from your business. It's rare when accidents happen at flea markets, but if one of your displays or tables were to fall on someone and injure or kill them and they or their estate sue, it could cost you dearly. Being an LLC will help insulate your own personal holdings from court judgements.

I make thousands of dollars each and every month selling at flea markets and swap meets and always get paid in cash! It's fun, it's easy.
