Tax-Exempt Orders

To place an order on behalf of a tax-exempt organization or individual, you will need to provide proof of state tax-exempt status for the state where the product is being shipped. Tax exempt entities do not have to provide documentation for orders shipping to states that do not have sales tax (AK, DE, MT, NH, OR).

Instructions for Placing a Tax-Exempt Order:

• Email your state tax exemption certificate to neatsales@neat.com. The organization or individual name on the order must exactly match the state tax-exempt certificate. Federal tax exemption certificates are not applicable.
• Call The Neat Company at 1-866-632-8732 to place your order.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is sales tax?

Sales tax is a tax placed on the retail price of merchandise. Retailers are obligated to collect sales tax in any and all states in which they are deemed to have nexus (as determined by physical presence or the conduct of certain activities).

Why is The Neat Company charging me sales tax when the company isn’t located in my state?

The Neat Company is obligated to collect sales tax in any and all states in which we are deemed to have nexus. For Neat, sales tax treatment is typically determined by the economic nexus threshold for a jurisdiction. In many cases, this is related to the total dollar amount of sales in the prior 12 months (such as $100,000), but in other cases could be a count of unique transactions in that timeframe (such as 100). Once Neat has surpassed these thresholds, it will be required to start collecting and remitting taxes on any sales in that state.

What kind proof do I need to provide to place a tax-exempt order?

You will need to provide a state tax-exemption certificate. The organization or individual name on the certificate must exactly match the name on the order and the certificate must be valid (i.e. not expired). Federal tax exemption certificates are not applicable.
