States are more aggressive in their pursuit of sales tax revenues, so now more than ever it is critical for companies to maintain accurate and current sales records. Companies with a high percentage of tax exempt sales may be particularly vulnerable during a state audit if the proper exemption certificates are not on file. Valid exemption certificates are proof that a vendor did not have to collect taxes from specific customers. The customer may be an exempt reseller or a non-profit entity, however they need to provide documentation to any vendor they purchase from as proof that they are exempt from paying sales tax on certain purchases. If a vendor does not maintain a valid exemption certificate for the time period when the exemption was applied, then that vendor would be responsible for paying the tax and any penalties and interest assessed by the jurisdiction during an audit.
