Tax Exempt
We are required to collect sales tax in multiple states. If you represent a school, government agency, reseller, or any other tax-exempt organization, you may be eligible to make tax-free purchases.
How To Apply:
To request tax exemption for your account, please follow the steps below:
- Create or Log In: Sign in to your existing account or create a new one.
- Upload Documentation: Navigate to the Tax Exempt section of your account profile to upload your certificate(s).
- Wait for Review: Approval typically takes 3–5 business days. You will receive an email notification once your status is updated.
- Shop Tax-Free: Once approved, all future orders placed through your account will automatically be tax-exempt.
Note on Retroactive Refunds: If you have already placed an order, a retroactive tax refund will be issued upon the successful review and approval of your documentation.
Critical Requirements for Approval:
To avoid delays or rejection of your application, please ensure your documentation meets the following criteria:
- Signed & Dated: Even if your state certificate does not have a dedicated signature line, we require a signature and date to be clearly visible on the document.
- Vendor Information: Ensure the "Vendor" section is filled out. Please list the vendor as: OptiMA, Inc.
- Match Account Details: The company name on your account profile must exactly match the company name listed on the tax certificate.
- State-Specific: Tax exemption applies based on the shipping destination. You must upload a certificate for each state where you receive deliveries (or provide a valid blanket exemption certificate).
- Current Status: Certificates must be up-to-date. Expired or incomplete forms will be rejected.
