No they aren't the same thing.  At least not in the state of Washington.  In Washington, the thing Ebay needs is my Reseller Permit #.  

 

The Certificate is just a form I fill out that uses my UBI [unified business identifier] number.  The Reseller Permit is actually a form that the State of Washington issues to the business owner.  Then you need to put that Permit number on this form and submit it to Ebay.  If you need a full size copy of this form, just PM me and I'll get you one.

so I just fill that out and submit it to eBay? I thought I was supposed to submit that to the state of Ohio for it to be official and they would send back confirmation, but I guess I misunderstood that.

That link was for an Ohio CERTIFICATE.  That is NOT what Ebay wants.  They want your PERMIT number which is as I described in my previous post.  Then you fill out the form and put your permit number on it [pic in my other post].  Then you submit that form to Ebay.

 

So your first step would be to get your PERMIT number [not to be confused with a certificate].

Because they don't want that form.  They do NOT want the CERTIFICATE.  They want the form I put in a pic up thread.  Once you fill that out and submit it with your PERMIT number, then they will accept it.
