Tax Exemption Requirements
State laws mandate M.LaHart & Co. to obtain exemption certificates from customers claiming a tax exemption. Without a valid exemption certificate, we are legally required to charge tax.
Submitting Exemption Certificates
If your business qualifies for a tax exemption, please submit a properly completed exemption certificate to M.LaHart & Co.'s Customer Service. Your account will be updated within one business day upon receipt of your certificate(s).
Should your certificate be incomplete, Customer Service will contact you with instructions to complete it.
You can email your completed Tax Exemption Certificate to info@mlahart.com or fax it to 1-888-962-2336.
Acceptable Documentation
Documents like IRS letters, W-9s, and state-issued permits/licenses are generally not acceptable for claiming a tax exemption. You must provide your state-issued number (e.g., Tax ID, Exemption Number) on a valid exemption certificate.
