Tax Exemption Processing
Tax certificates are not approved instantly. Allow processing time after you submit your certificate, as your account’s tax-exempt status may not appear at checkout right away.
Once your certificate has been accepted, your orders will reflect tax-free pricing when shipping to the state the certificate covers.
