While not-for-profit organizations and other 501(c) entities often enjoy sales tax exemptions when purchasing goods or services for their own use, those exemptions typically do not extend to sales made to the public. As a result, transactions like conferences, educational programs, digital learning platforms, and fundraising merchandise sales may be subject to state sales tax.
Join CBIZ as we explore state sales tax rules for not-for-profit organizations and other 501(c) entities, with a particular emphasis on sales made by charities, educational organizations, trade associations, and others.
We will discuss how sales tax applies to these activities, review potential exemptions for sales made to other not-for-profit or 501(c) entities, and address compliance considerations. The session will provide practical advice on remediating past noncompliance and how to deal with ongoing sales tax compliance so your organization can minimize risk and meet its obligations moving forward.
