Receipt of your claim is not an agreement that tax will be refunded.  \nFor resale, [Costco.com](Costco.com) requires the appropriate resale certificate from the state where the shipment was delivered. For exempt organizations, such as schools and nonprofit organizations, most states require that purchases must be made with a credit card in the name of the tax exempt business or agency. Payment with personal funds to be reimbursed by the organization may nullify an exemption.  \nOur ability to provide you a refund of the tax you paid on your purchase will be based on the \"ship to\"state's resale/tax exemption laws. If your purchase does not meet that state’s guidelines, Costco will not be able to refund the tax.  \nPlease feel free to contact us if you have any more questions/concerns.  \nThank you,  \nCorporate Tax Department Costco Wholesale Corporation  \nSALES TAX EXEMPTION CLAIM  \nIn order expedite the processing of your refund request, please provide the following:  \n􀁸 This completed and signed sales tax exemption claim form;  \n􀁸 A copy of your resale/tax exempt documentation;  \n􀁸 A copy of the online e-mail confirmation receipt(s) or warehouse receipt(s) from your purchase.
