How to Buy Tax Exempt on Amazon


If you are eligible to buy things tax exempt in your state, you can sign up to buy tax exempt on Amazon. This is part of the Amazon Tax Exemption Program, or ATEP, which you can enroll in. You can use the wizard to do this, and you may want to sign up for a free Amazon Business account.

You can sign up for this without making an Amazon Business account, but you should consider signing up for one so that all of your business purchases are in one spot on Amazon. This will make it easier to track purchases for taxes, and you can use your current Amazon Prime or if you need it upgrade to Amazon Prime Business.

To do this, you need to know your tax exempt information and then you will need to spend a few minutes using the Amazon Tax Exempt Wizard to get setup.
