Sales Tax Exemption FAQs

Find answers about eligibility, required documentation, approval, and tax-exempt purchasing with JCE Lighting.

Who can apply for sales tax exemption?

Qualified resellers, tax-exempt organizations, government entities, and other eligible businesses may apply for sales tax exemption. Approval is based on the documentation provided and applicable state requirements.

What documents do I need to submit?

Please provide a valid resale certificate, tax exemption certificate, or other applicable documentation supporting your exemption request. The certificate should be complete, current, and match the business information provided in your application.

Does submitting the application automatically make my account tax exempt?

No. Submitting the form does not automatically grant tax-exempt status. Applicable sales tax will continue to be charged until JCE Lighting has reviewed and approved your documentation.

How long does the review process take?

Most applications are reviewed within 1–3 business days after all required information and supporting documents have been received. Incomplete or unclear documentation may require additional review.

Can I apply for tax exemption in both New Jersey and Texas?

Yes. If your business qualifies for exemption in both states, select both New Jersey and Texas in the application and provide the appropriate supporting documentation for each state.

Do I need a separate exemption certificate for each state?

In most cases, tax exemption documentation is state-specific. If you are requesting exemption in more than one state, please provide the applicable documentation for each state where exemption is being requested.

What if the information on my certificate does not match my JCE Lighting account?

We may contact you for clarification or additional documentation. To help avoid delays, use the same business name, address, and contact information associated with your JCE Lighting customer account whenever possible.

What happens after my tax exemption application is approved?

Once approved, the applicable tax exemption will be associated with your JCE Lighting customer account. Future eligible purchases made under that account will use the approved exemption status where applicable.

What if my exemption certificate expires or my business information changes?

Please submit updated documentation whenever your exemption certificate, business name, address, tax ID, or other relevant information changes.

Who should I contact if I need help with my application?
