Tax Exemption Policy

Overview

Certain institutions such as universities, research laboratories, government agencies, and nonprofit organizations may qualify for sales tax exemption depending on applicable regulations.

To ensure the tax exemption is applied correctly, please follow the steps below.

Prepare Your Tax Exemption Documents

Please provide a valid tax exemption certificate issued by the relevant authority. Examples may include:

• University or research institution tax exemption certificates
• Government-issued exemption documentation
• Reseller or sales tax exemption certificates required by your state

The document should clearly show the organization name and exemption status.

Submit Your Documents

Send your tax exemption documentation by email to business@bplabline.com

Please include the following information:

• Organization or institution name
• Contact name
• Order number (if an order has already been placed)

Please also indicate whether the exemption should apply to:

• Your entire account — future orders will automatically be treated as tax-exempt
• A single order — only the specified order will be tax-exempt

Requesting Tax Exemption Before or After Ordering

You may request tax exemption either before placing your order or after placing it, as long as the order has not yet been shipped.

Before placing an order

Contact us with your exemption documentation. Once verified, we will apply the tax-exempt status to your order or account.

While placing an order

You may leave a note in the Order Notes section during checkout indicating that your order qualifies for tax exemption.

Please also email your exemption documentation to business@bplabline.com with your order number and exemption certificate so our team can review and apply the exemption before shipment.

This helps our team identify and process your request more quickly. Please note that orders may be temporarily placed on hold while tax exemption documentation is being verified.

After placing an order

If you have already placed an order, please contact us as soon as possible before shipment with your exemption documents and order number. We will review and adjust the sales tax if eligible.

Processing Time

Once we receive your documents, our team will process the tax-exemption request within 24–48 hours.

You will receive confirmation once your tax-exempt status has been successfully applied.
