Why it matters

Stop paying sales tax
on inventory

A resale certificate tells your supplier you're buying goods to resell, so they sell to you tax-free and you collect the tax from your customers instead. Every state has its own form and rules. Vendors keep your certificate on file, and most ask for a fresh one per vendor, per state.

Buying wholesale

Without a certificate on file, distributors charge you sales tax upfront. That's cash you only recover when the goods finally sell.

Reselling goods

Retailers, e-commerce sellers, and dropshippers registered for sales tax can buy inventory exempt, with the right certificate for each vendor.

What one certificate saves

Without a certificate
$25,000 inventory × 8% tax −$2,000

Paid upfront to your supplier.

With a resale certificate
Same purchase, tax exempt $0

You collect the tax from your customers at sale.

A single wholesale order can save more than the $297/year subscription, and every certificate after that is included.

How it works

Set up once. Generate forever.

The slow part of a resale certificate is filling out the same details on a different state form every time. We keep your details. You just pick the form.

01

Set up your resale profile

Business details, sales tax registrations, and your adopted e-signature, entered once and reused on every certificate.

02

Pick a state and vendor

Choose the state form (or an MTC / SST multi-state form) and the vendor it's for. We fill the official form automatically.

03

Download the signed PDF

Your certificate is e-signed and ready to send. Every certificate stays in your workspace to reissue or re-download anytime.

Everything included

Common questions

Everything you need to know before you start.

Yes. One flat $297/year covers every certificate you generate: every state, every vendor, every reissue. There are no per-certificate, per-state, or per-download fees.
All applicable states: every state that has a sales tax, plus Washington, D.C., along with the MTC and SST uniform multi-state certificates. Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire, and Oregon have no state sales tax, so no resale certificate is needed there.
A sales tax permit (seller's permit) is issued by the state and authorizes you to collect sales tax from customers. A resale certificate is a document you provide to vendors when buying goods for resale. It tells them you're exempt from paying sales tax on that purchase because you'll collect it from your buyers. You need a valid sales tax permit before you can issue a resale certificate. Don't have one yet? We handle sales tax registration too.
Validity varies by state. Some states consider resale certificates valid indefinitely as long as your sales tax permit remains active. Others require renewal every 1 to 3 years or have expiration dates. If your permit lapses or is revoked, your resale certificate is no longer valid. We track expiration dates and email you before a certificate lapses.
Most vendors across the country accept properly formatted resale certificates. Some states participate in the Streamlined Sales Tax (SST) multistate certificate, which many vendors recognize. A few states require their own forms for in-state purchases, which is why we generate certificates on each state's official form, so you always have the document a vendor expects.
No. Resale certificates may only be used for purchases you intend to resell. Using one for personal or business consumption (e.g., office supplies you use yourself) is tax fraud and can result in penalties, audits, and loss of your sales tax permit. Only use your resale certificate when buying inventory or goods you will sell to customers.
Resale certificates typically apply to tangible personal property (goods) you buy for resale. For services, rules vary by state. Some allow exemption when you're reselling a service, others treat services differently. If you buy goods that become part of a service (e.g., materials used in a repair), a resale certificate may apply.
Yes. The subscription renews yearly and can be canceled anytime. Certificates you've already generated and sent to vendors remain valid per their state's rules.
