Sales and Use Tax Exemption Certificate Policy

How can I get tax exemption on my Brady order?

You must provide a valid tax exempt certificate for your "Ship To" address to avoid sales taxes.

My company has tax exemption certificates on file with Brady

If you have previously provided tax exemption certificates to Brady, you can apply them to your online order. You will need a Bradyid.com website account to leverage your exemptions.

I have an existing BradyID.com account:

If you have a BradyID.com account already, just login to your account and your tax exemptions will be applied if we have one for your “Ship To” address. You can view the tax exemptions you have on file with Brady by going to the “My Account” section of Bradyid.com.

I don’t have an existing Bradyid.com account:

Create an account by choosing “Sign In” from the website header and follow the prompts. We’ll attempt to link your new online account with your company account with Brady. You will then be able to see your on-file tax exemptions in the “My Account” section of Bradyid.com. NOTE: If you don’t see your tax exemptions immediately you can place your order but tax will be applied. You’ll need then, to contact Brady customer service to have tax removed or a credit issued for orders that have already been invoiced.

I need to apply for a tax exemption:

To apply for an exemption, you will need to provide an appropriate tax exemption certificate. This can be done when you are placing an order or, for customers with Bradyid.com accounts, anytime from the “My Account” section of the website.

Applying when placing an order

1. Proceed through the checkout page until you reach the order review page. There you will see a section related to taxes for your order.

   

2. Click the “Apply for tax exemption” button and follow the prompts. You will have two options:

   • Upload a certificate before placing your order, or
   • Place the order and email us the certificate later.

   With each option, we’ll charge taxes with the order but wait to invoice you until your tax exemption request has been approved. If your tax exemption request is declined or your information is received too late (we won’t hold up shipping your order), you will be charged tax. You can still contact Brady customer service, if necessary, to have a credit issued.

Applying from the “My Account” section of Bradyid.com

Registered users can also apply for tax exemption from the “My Account” section of the website at any time. You may want to do this if you know you will be placing future orders and want to avoid any delays or misapplied taxes. The process for apply from the “My Account” section is the same as in checkout.

For further assistance, contact Brady Customer Service and we’ll be happy to help.
