Tax-Exempt Purchases

How do I apply for a tax-exempt account?

If you are ordering on behalf of a registered tax-exempt organization, please send a completed sales tax exemption certificate to taxspecialist@ahgonline.org. Send your sales tax exempt certificate from the email address associated with the AHGstore account that will place orders on behalf of the tax-exempt organization. Please ensure you are sending a sales tax exemption certificate and not an income tax exemption document. To be accepted, the form needs to be completed in its entirety and must list American Heritage Girls, Inc. as the seller. AHG's address is 35 Tri-County Parkway, Cincinnati, OH 45246.

Please make sure the form is signed and dated by the appropriate party in the tax-exempt organization. If your tax exemption certificate has an expiration date, please ensure that the certificate is not expired. We will contact you when the sales tax exemption has been applied to your account. Please wait until you receive this confirmation from us before placing an order that should not have sales tax applied.

Tax-exempt purchaser accounts on the AHGstore are intended solely for purchases made on behalf of the tax-exempt organization associated with the account. Any items purchased using a tax-exempt account must be for official use by the organization and not for personal purchases.

Misuse of a tax-exempt account, including using it for personal orders, may result in the account being revoked and the purchaser being responsible for any applicable sales tax. AHGstore reserves the right to review tax-exempt status and request additional documentation if needed.

If you have questions about tax-exempt eligibility or usage, please contact our customer service team before placing an order.
