Amazon Business Tax Exemption

Overview

Thank you for choosing to use the Amazon Business for Education Marketplace.

Provided that you are an authorized buyer for a Tax Exempt Organization, you are now able to purchase tax free, for qualified items within the Amazon Business Marketplace. Please know that most, but not all items within the store are eligible, so please take note of the line item tax listing in your shopping cart before completing your purchase. For any issues, please contact the Amazon Business Customer Service Team at (866) 486-2360.
