Question: My company is tax exempt or self-remits sales tax what should I do?
Answer: HighLevel requests that its customers complete a new sales tax exemption certificate(s) in order to continue selling to your company on a sales tax-exempt basis. Complete the Multistate Tax Commission’s - Uniform Sales & Use Tax Exemption/Resale Certificate or another state-approved exemption certificate before August 1, 2022.
When completing the exemption certificate(s), please enter HighLevel, Inc as the Name of the Seller. Once you have submitted a valid exemption certificate you will not be required to do so again until the next expiration date.
If you have already completed this form or paid use tax, please be sure to send any supporting documentation to Salestax@gohighlevel.com

Question: In what situation would someone have a sales tax exemption form?
Answer: HighLevel is required to collect sales taxes on some of our products unless you provide us with a resale certificate. If you are not sure if you are a reseller we recommend that you contact your CPA or tax advisor.
