Tax exemption applies only to purchases made directly by a tax-exempt organization, where the organization is the purchaser of record. This typically means the order is placed by authorized company personnel and charged directly to the company’s tax-exempt account.

When vouchers or gift cards are issued to employees and used for individual purchases, the employee is considered the purchaser of record. Because these transactions are personal purchases and not made directly by the tax-exempt organization, they do not qualify for tax-exempt status and are subject to applicable sales tax.

How can our organization ensure purchases remain tax-exempt?
To qualify for tax exemption, orders must:

• Be placed directly by the organization

• Be submitted by authorized company representatives
