10.16.2 State sales tax

The Commonwealth of Virginia is generally exempt from paying Virginia's sales taxes on purchases of tangible personal property for its use or consumption. Agencies may receive requests for a tax exemption certificate or exemption number. When taxes are improperly included on the face of a bid, the bidder will be given the opportunity to delete them. Requests for exemptions from state sales taxes should be routed to: scminfo@vita.virginia.gov.
