Ohio Sales Tax Exemption Certificate
Prior to making purchases, departments are required to provide the Ohio Blanket Sales Tax Exemption Certificate to vendors after checking the contracted vendors. If a required contract exists for the commodity or service being purchased, you may not purchase from any other vendor as per policy 7-12.1(D)(2): mandatory use of university contracts.
Any vendor who needs an exemption certificate must contact the department making the purchase.
Please note: Employees paying for goods or lodging with a personal check or personal credit card will not be exempt from the sales tax regardless of whether Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ State will reimburse the expenses. Employees may only claim exemption if the good or service is directly paid by the university with the use of check request, purchase order or P-Card.
