Submit Your Resale Certificate
Provide one of the accepted certificates below to mark your Alpha BioMed account as tax-exempt for future purchases.
These are the only documents we can accept for sales tax exemption.
After Approval
Your account will be marked tax-exempt for future orders.
Orders placed before approval will still include sales tax and are not refundable (tax is remitted directly to the state).
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use my EIN letter instead of a resale certificate?
No. An EIN is just your federal tax ID. Sales tax exemption requires a resale certificate tied to your state sales tax permit.
Do I need to renew my certificate every year?
Most states allow resale certificates to remain valid until revoked, but some (like Florida) require annual renewal. Always check your state’s rules.
My state has no sales tax (AK, DE, MT, NH, OR). Do I need a certificate?
Usually no for purchases shipped to those states. If you buy for delivery to a taxable state, you’ll still need that state’s acceptable certificate.
Our legal name vs. DBA. what should appear?
Use your legal entity name. You may include the DBA, but the legal name should match the permit registration.
I already placed an order, can you refund sales tax after I submit a certificate?
Sorry, no. Taxes are remitted to the state; prior orders can’t be refunded. Submit now to avoid tax on future orders.
We have multiple locations, do we need multiple certificates?
If they share one legal entity and permit, a blanket certificate usually covers all. If locations use different entities or permits, submit for each.
