How do I obtain a Tax Exempt Certificate from the United States Coast Guard?
I think I was missunderstood. I am not referring to employment tax. I am referring to sales tax. My company is a contractor doing business with the Coast Guard. Normally, when you do business with a municipality or the federal government, you obtain a Tax Exempt Certificate that states that the entity, i.e. Coast Guard, Navy, etc. is exempt from sales tax. In that way, the contractor does not have to pay or charge sales tax. I hope this clarifies my question. Thank you to all who answered the first time around.
