Gelato Sales Tax Exemption

Print on Demand is the next big thing in the world of online selling.  Below is a guide on how to get sales tax exemption set up on your Gelato account.

Once you have logged into your account.  Click on your initials in the top right hand corner of the page.

Select ‘Billing’ and the click ‘Tax center’

Click on Resale ‘Certificate’ in the Taxes in the Americas section.

Click ‘Add Resale Certificate’ in the top right corner.

Dropshippers - You will need sales tax IDs and permits for your business state, AL, CA, DC, FL, IL, LA, MD, MA, MS, NM and WA.

Untick all the Canadian states, Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico

For the application use the Multi-state jurisdiction form and include the CA, IL, WA and MD account numbers as well as your home/business state tax ID number.

You will need to upload the FL, MS, LA and MA certificates.

WV, WY and IN will need to be uploaded on a streamlined blanket certificate (as they aren’t included on the multi-state jurisdiction form)

Seller information for the resale certificates is:

Gelato ASA

Postboks 47 Sentrum

0101 Oslo

Please note, the business name and address in the form must match registered business name and address on your business registration licence. The business name and address in the My Account section in Gelato must also match the information in the resale certificate.

Notes to help with the application:

- Write “E-commerce retail”, as the type of business you engage in.

- Choose “Retailer” if primarily selling to consumers, “Wholesaler” if primarily selling to other businesses.

- Write “Print-on-demand clothing, accessories and home & living items”, when asked to describe the property you intend to purchase from Gelato

Once the resale certificate is submitted and approved, sales tax exemption will apply to all of the stores that are connected to the Gelato account. It will take approximately a week for Gelato to review the information

Gelato will email if there is a problem or issue with one of the certificates. You can email the Gelato support team for help: https://www.gelato.com/uk/contact

Sales Tax Filing Responsibilities

Once you have a sales tax license in a state you will be required to file there on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis.  This is regardless of whether you’ve made any sales and even if no tax is due.

Please see our sales tax filing FAQs for more information.
