If your organization is tax exempt, our Publishers require a resale certificate and proof of exemption. We’ve listed resources for you to find these items below.

 

Sales tax exemption for each invoice is based on the shipping address, not the billing address, on each invoice. Please make sure to provide certificates for all states where you want to have products shipped.

 

If you ship to multiple states, please use the multi-jurisdiction information.

 

Completed certificates should be sent to: sales@sommerstreet.com
