Requesting Tax-Exempt Status During Sign-Up

They will see this page automatically once the free trial period ends. To request tax-exempt status, administrators need to check the Tax Exempt Status checkbox and provide the company’s tax ID
Requesting Tax Exempt Status as an Existing Customer

Submitting Tax Exemption Documentation
To approve an exemption, Emburse Professional will also need exemption documentation, provided by the relevant jurisdiction/city/state/national authority. After checking the box and providing your company’s Tax ID, administrators need to send this documentation to tax@emburse.com. After the Tax Exempt Status checkbox is checked and submitted, administrators at your company will receive an email notification to send the documentation to Emburse Professional.
If your tax exemption is back-dated and you need a credit for previous charges, please outline these in your email to tax@emburse.com.
After submitting documentation, our Tax Team reviews your exemption request.
If approved, administrators at your company will receive a notification email informing you of which tax rates your company is now exempt from.
If rejected, a member of our Tax Team will reach out with more information.
Checking the Status of an Exemption Request
