r/tax on Reddit: Can I be sales tax exempt from any purchases/companies that support it?
June 24, 2024 -

I am a sole proprietor and own a small business, a jewelry store. One-man operation. For example, I get emails from Amazon about a business account and being sales tax exempt. Also from Comcast Business for my internet bill about being sales tax exempt.

Is it as simple as submitting my business info/TIN to be sales tax exempt? These would be business purchases/business use cases. Any implications with the IRS or law? I reside in TN.

Or is all of this just for non profit companies? I’m not a non profit.

r/WindowCleaning on Reddit: Tax exempt certificate for amazon?
February 24, 2024 -

Hey everyone, I recently finally applied for a sales tax id after going through a couple accountants and being told different things by different people. Finally with my current CPA and business attorney, they clarified that yes, I am supposed to be collecting sales tax.

Anyway, my question is-

Sometimes I like to order work stuff from amazon, especially if I cant find things other places. I registered for an amazon business account and uploaded my tax exempt certificate. But for whatever reason the selection for work stuff is damn near non existent for window cleaning on amazon buisiness. Is there anyway I can order things from the regular amazon site and still use my tax exempt certificate? If so, how do I do that.

Thanks!

r/tax on Reddit: Am I eligible to become tax exempt from Amazon?
July 21, 2021 -

I’m 21 & still in school living with my parents and wanted to know if I am able to claim exemption from federal or NY State taxes because I don’t file taxes. I’m still claimed as a dependent because my father still pays for almost everything for me even though I am working. Amazon is the first real job I’ve worked my whole life, the ones prior never amounted to the ~12k yearly income minimum that is required before filing taxes so I just never did and I also believe my father claiming me would mess with it anyways. The reason I want an exemption is because taxes eat up a good percent of my check & I’m not even eligible to get it back at the end of the year because I don’t get a tax return.

r/Flipping on Reddit: Amazon and sales tax exempt status question
December 21, 2017 -

I sometimes buy things to flip and shipping supplies on Amazon and I have a business license so those purchases are tax exempt. I also use the same account to buy personal items which are not tax exempt. Ever since I added my business license information Amazon has been taking the sales tax off all my items and I can't figure out how to make the exemption only apply on the correct purchases. Yeah, I'd like to not pay sales tax on anything, but I'd rather follow the tax rules in case I ever get audited.

What's the best way to handle this?

December 23, 2021 -

Hi All,

I am new to the reselling business in Canada. I want to know that is there a tax exemption for the resellers? Practically, I am paying taxes when I buy and the buyer who buys from me pays taxes again on the same item. My logical brain is saying that there should be a tax exemption.

Please help me out here.

Thanks

In America if you buy wholesale there is no tax. If your source is charging you tax than you must be buying retail (from a store). You cannot buy things from a store and sell them as ne on Amazon.

EDIT: Sorry for the confusion but apparently the Great State of Oklahoma is the ONLY state that offers state tax sales tax exemption for 100% disabled veterans. This will ONLY work for Oklahoma residents.

If you didn't know, you can apply your tax except to Amazon purchases. Just Google Amazon tax exempt, upload your state sales tax exempt card and within a few hours get an email saying it's ready for use.
