What is the difference between a Resale Tax Certificate and a Uniform Sales & Use Exemption Certificate?


A Resale Tax Certificate is typically issued by a single state whereas the Uniform Sales & Use Exemption Certificate was developed by the Multi-state Tax Commission (MTC) to cover multiple states simultaneously. The MTC has developed a Certificate that 38 States have indicated is acceptable for use as a “blanket” resale certificate and similar purposes. The Certificate itself contains instructions on its use, lists the States that have indicated to the Commission that a properly filled out form satisfies the requirements for a valid resale certificate, and sets forth specific limitations on its use.
