Industry - Manufacturing | TaxConnex

Exemption Certificates Management

Depending on where you are in the supply chain, managing exemption certificates is crucial. For example, a manufacturer that sells to other manufacturers will need to collect and validate exemption certificates from their customers.

Taxability Rules

Understanding whether your purchases should be taxable or exempt can be confusing depending mainly on how the product is used. Are the purchases used in the manufacturing process (raw materials or components) or consumed within the business (office or shop supplies)? Each situation can have different impacts

Nexus Rules

Manufacturers that sell to end users of their products, will need to track nexus and the taxability of their products or services and apply sales tax as applicable. They also need to pay special attention to states who track nexus by gross sales (which is the majority) rather than retail, as they must consider their wholesale sales in combination with their retail sales when determining if they've met thresholds.

We can always rely on a timely response to our inquiries. Our working relationship [with our practitioner] is great because questions can be asked in both directions. I would recommend TaxConnex to any and every business. Our team is no longer stretched during peak times and the cost of service, for the value and benefit we receive is exceptional.

We started our business six years ago, very small and lean. As the CFO and founding partner, I am still the only individual responsible for accounting and finance. I needed a place to go that would take care of everything else, so I could focus on the operations and that’s where I found TaxConnex.

My day is pulled in 20 different directions so [my practitioner] is great at keeping me on track and making sure we get all the data needed for filings and if a new project pops up, she is quick to respond and make sure we are managing sales tax correctly in each situation. As a small business, that is very important.
The main value I see from TaxConnex, is peace of mind with managing our sales tax obligations and knowing we have best-in-class processes in place to show the various states and jurisdictions that we want to be compliant.
