Why is my Nintex purchase subject to sales tax in some states but not others?
Each state has developed its own laws regarding whether specific products purchased or received
in the state are subject to sales tax. If your invoice includes sales tax, one or more of the products
you purchased from Nintex are taxable in the state where the products were received.
How is sales tax calculated?
Sales tax is generally calculated by applying the sales tax rate of a state or locality to the total sales
price of the order. The amount of tax charged on an order depends on various factors, such as
who the buyer is, how the buyer will be using the item purchased, and where the item will be
used.
My state generally charges sales tax on the type of product I purchased, yet no sales tax was charged on my order. Why is this?
Nintex is required to charge sales tax only in states where Nintex has a “taxable presence.” As a
result, if Nintex doesn’t have a “taxable presence” in the state where your product is received, the
Nintex won’t charge sales tax on your order. In such instances, you may still have an obligation to
pay use tax in your state.
Is my Nintex purchase exempt from sales tax in the U.S.?
Some states offer exemptions from sales for certain organizations, such as government
organizations, educational institutions, non-profit organizations, public charities, churches and
other religious organizations. Other states may offer exemptions based on how the purchaser
intends to use the product, such as a purchase for resale or for use in a business. Exemptions vary
state by state. If you believe that your organization is exempt from sales tax in your state and have
a valid exemption certificate, please send it to salestax@nintex.com.
