Wholesale Artificial Flowers Open to the Public: Can You Buy Without a Tax ID?

“Is there a wholesale retailer in the US that does not require a tax ID?” A bride-to-be asked exactly this on Reddit after her usual overseas supplier became more expensive. It is a fair question: many flower wholesalers and markets only open their trade prices to registered businesses. This guide explains why, and how buying from NB8 Floral works if you do not have a business at all.

Quick Answer

Many trade-only suppliers ask for a resale certificate or tax ID before they sell at wholesale prices. NB8 Floral does not: anyone can buy, with no business license, resale certificate or tax ID, and there is no minimum order, so a single pack is fine. Everyone sees the same listed prices, with shipping to US addresses included.

Why Some Wholesalers Ask for a Tax ID

A resale certificate lets a business buy goods it will resell without paying sales tax on that purchase, so trade-only sellers collect one to document those sales. We explain how this works, with official sources, in Do You Need a Resale Certificate to Buy Artificial Flowers Wholesale?.

Physical flower markets often split access the same way. The Original Los Angeles Flower Market says its trade hours are for badge holders who must have valid resale certificates, while public hours are open to all customers; it is open Monday to Saturday, 5am to 1pm.

Buying From NB8 Floral Without a Business

• No documents. You do not need a business license, resale certificate or tax ID to order.
• No minimum. The smallest unit for sale is one pack, and that is also the minimum order. Each option shows how many stems it contains.
• Same prices for everyone. Prices on the product page are the prices; shipping to US addresses is included (remote areas excluded). For large, mixed or international orders, contact us for a quotation.
• Payment at checkout. Orders are paid in full at checkout by card, Klarna or Link; we do not offer credit terms.
• Check where each option ships from. Options shown as US stock ship from our US warehouse; other options ship from China. If part of an order ships from China, it arrives in two shipments.

Before a Large Order

• Order the Sample Box to check materials and color: the stems are free and the $39.90 at checkout is the shipping cost.
• Work out stems by layer with the 3-5-8 rule or by surface with our arch and flower wall calculator.
• Compare price per stem, not price per pack. See minimums and pack pricing.

What an Order Costs and How It Ships

• Packs, not single stems. Each option shows how many stems it contains. Across our catalog the median pack costs about $93, and half of all options cost between $72.94 and $121.00 (read on 24 October 2026).
• Shipping and duties included. Listed prices include shipping to the contiguous United States and US import duties, including on items that ship from our factory in China. We do not ship to Alaska or Hawaii. See shipping information.
• Delivery time. Options shown as US stock ship in 1 to 3 business days and arrive 2 to 5 business days later; other options are made to order and arrive within about 30 days.
• Try before a bigger order. The Sample Box holds 10 stems in one color in mixed materials; the stems are free and the $39.90 at checkout covers shipping.
