Here is what we do.

1.) Verify the buyer’s state registration number and expiration date – Each state department of revenue will have a place for you to verify the resale certificate number (which is also generally the same as their sales tax permit registration number.) Click here for a list of links to verify a resale certificate in every state. Be sure the certificate isn’t expired, too.

2.) Verify that the items would be sold in the normal course of the buyer’s business – Look for any signs of suspicious activity. If your buyer indicates on their resale certificate that they own a convenience store and they are trying to buy furniture from you tax free, this is an indication that the sale may be fraudulent. If it later turns out that they customer should have paid sales tax, you are on the hook to remit the sales tax you should have collected from your buyer. Ouch!

3.) Keep a copy of the resale certificate for your records – Be sure to keep a copy of the information you receive from your customer. Should you ever get audited, you’ll need this information to prove that you weren’t required to charge sales tax on this sale.
