Tax Exemption lost due to warehouse shipping address in another state
Hello Everyone,
I filed for tax exemption last year and and when working with my manufacturer through Alibaba, we verified my order processed with no tax with no issues. My business is registered in the state of Florida, so when the shipping address was recently changed from my business address to the amazon warehouse address to ship the order, I lost the exemption as it is in Tennessee and now looking at an added $1200 tax. Is there a way to avoid this? Thank you in advance for your assistance.
1. I thought to have it shipped to me, then i ship to warehouse, but if there is a way to not have to do this, I wanted to reach out for guidance.
2. Tax write off: Great, but not nearly as beneficial as the tax exempt.

Sending your product directly to Amazon without examining it first is a recipe for disaster. Plenty of horror stories here in the forum about this.
I am not sure why you would not pay the import taxes regardless of where the product is being delivered. Tax exempt normally refers to sales tax on purchases. Would love the details on how this works so we can do this ourselves.
