Course Description

Most companies dread a sales and use tax audit. Some industries, like manufacturing, distribution, wholesale, and construction, face audit risks that are higher than average, particularly when it comes to complex compliance scenarios like consumer use tax and tax-exempt sales.

The bottom line is if you buy or sell products or services that are exempt from sales tax, your compliance challenges and audit risk can be complex and burdensome. For each non-taxable sale, you must associate an exemption certificate (or more than one, in some cases) proving tax wasn't owed.
Gathering and managing these documents while fully understanding your obligations can quickly become overwhelming.

If you're a tax-exempt seller or serve clients who are, join this webinar for critical tax tips to help you stay on top of tax compliance.

Learning Objectives: 


  • Determine the impact of economic nexus laws on exempt sellers, including increased tax obligations in multiple states

  • Identify how to decrease your customers’ burden of providing exemption certificates

  • List tips to effectively manage and organize exemption documents to avoid being hit with penalties during an audit

  • Identify why your business must actively manage consumer use tax in addition to sales tax exemptions (especially if you don’t pay sales tax on purchases you make)
