Sales Tax Exemptions on Farm Products & Inputs
Date: March 4, 2024
Time: 6:00-8:00 p.m. EST
Presenter: Andrew Branan, Associate Professor and Extension Legal Specialist, NC State University

Topics:

  • Producers of farm products are generally exempt from collecting and remitting sales taxes on those items – but what about value-added items such as meat cuts, jams, pickles, baked goods, flower bouquets, etc.?
  • To be exempt, what registration must I make? What records must I keep to prove any exemptions available to me? Where do I remit any sales taxes I’m obligated to collect?
  • Producers may also qualify for an exemption from paying sales taxes on inputs they purchase – but how do you qualify (and stay qualified)? How do you sign up? Do beginner farmers qualify?

To find out the answers to these questions, join us for this FREE webinar on March 4. Pre-registration is required.

Registrants will receive the Zoom link two days prior to the webinar. The webinar will be recorded.
