Amazon Tax Exemption Program (ATEP) is a program, which allows an organization to use their tax exemption status towards purchases that take place on Amazon Business.
If you’re new to Amazon Business, it’s a marketplace that enables sellers and manufacturers to sell directly to registered companies. The advantages are many, and there is no reason not to have an Amazon Business account.
If you are an Amazon professional seller, you have access to all of the tools and services that may assist you in scaling your business and differentiating yourself from the competition.

Returning to Amazon’s Tax Exemption Program, customers and organizations who do business via Amazon’s platform are eligible for sales tax exemptions. Amazon merchants that participate in this program must accept ATEP exemptions from customers. This program ensures that all teacher and staff orders are tax-exempt.
As a participating seller, you may manage buyer exemptions automatically via your Seller Central account. Purchasers who are not tax exempt at the time of purchase may seek tax refunds from you later.

If you are an Amazon Business seller, you may be eligible for the Amazon Tax Exemption Program. Amazon merchants that participate in the ATEP will have their tax exemptions handled automatically. This automated handling process entails the collecting of customer exemption papers and their storage in Amazon’s system, which may be accessed through an Amazon seller account. You may access the papers at any time via the Tax Document Library.
Additionally, purchasers may limit their search results to include or exclude vendors that accept the tax exemption.
To determine if such orders exist, you must utilize the reporting portion of your Tax Document Library. Within 72 hours of the order, you will discover data in the Buyer Exemption column and exemption papers in your Sales Tax Report under the Tax-Exemption Certificates tab.
Amazon Business offers an optional service called the Amazon Tax Exemption Program. If you join, you may benefit from fewer customer inquiries about tax settings and post-order tax reimbursements on purchases.
Additionally, sellers are obliged to disclose any tax-related responses to the buyer upon request.
When a client seeks a tax refund on an FBA purchase, Amazon honors the request. Only if Amazon gets supporting exemption paperwork, which you can access in your Tax Document Library, will the tax be reimbursed.
You may provide tax refunds on merchant-fulfilled purchases at any time. You may refer consumers to Amazon customer support in the event of FBA. Additionally, you may give a concession refund on the order.
This information contains the buying organization’s name, the kind of organization (reseller, government, or charity organization, for example), and the jurisdictions (state or/and local) in which the tax exemption applies.
Along with the data, Amazon verifies the buyer’s details following enrollment. Additionally, it expects purchasers to submit correct information and maintain current tax exemption information.
