Get Tax-Exemption Certificates

If you use Amazon’s Tax Calculation Services and participate in the Amazon Tax Exemption Program (ATEP), the buyer exemption document used to exempt taxes on a purchase will be available to search and download from your Tax Document Library within 48 hours from the order completion.

You will be provided a secure link to access the order specific exemption document by following these steps:

An Excel document will open with order ID’s and links to the order specific exemption documents

Only the primary account holder credentials have access to tax-exemption documents on the secure server
8. Your tax-exemption certificate will download automatically after signing in
   Note: Always review the seller information on each tax-exemption certificate report to confirm that it is accurate.
