Why Pay Sales Tax If You Don't Have To?

Are you a non-profit or sales tax-exempt business?

If yes, then you will need to forward a copy of your state's exemption certificate to Weissman, see contact details below.

Are you registered as a reseller?

If yes, then you will need to forward a copy of your state's resale certificate to Weissman, see contact details below.

If neither of these scenarios apply to you, no action needs to be taken at this time.

For more information, please consult your accountant for advice that is specific to your business.
