Well, it depends... On June 21, 2018 the Supreme Court voted 5-4 to overturn Quill v. North Dakota, a 1992 ruling that stated that internet-based businesses were exempt from state sales taxes unless they had a physical presence in those states. As a result, certain states have released "economic" thresholds by which if a business meets or exceeds this threshold they must collect and remit sales tax to that state. If you are in a state that has passed this threshold you will see that we are now collecting on behalf of that state.
That said, if you are a business with a sales tax exemption we will still honor your exemption. To receive tax exempt status on EmpireAbrasives.com you must send your states required documentation to sales@empireabrasives.com and we will set up your account to be sales tax exempt for the life of the certificate of exemption. We do not provide the tax exemption form as they vary from state to state. If you would like to create your account prior to sending the tax exemption form, that can expedite the request.
Please send your documentation this before placing an order and wait for us to acknowledge and update the account. As we will be unable to reimburse the tax portion of a taxed transactions after the fact. We will only be able to cancel the order if it has not shipped yet.
If you have any additional questions regarding sales tax in the state with which you reside, please contact your states Department of Revenue for more information.
