| They aren't required to offer exemptions, most businesses do because it benefits
everyone.
Bricklink promised a solution in the 2nd quarter for 2021, that didn't happen.
Last week a panel was held to understand "the need for exemptions".
My take away from the meeting was:
1. They are aware it's an issue
2. Bricklink team wasn't on the same page as LEGO tax compliance on how hard
being compliant on exemptions is: they thought that they had to police individual
transactions even after verifying certificates- they don't.
3. Bricklink's backend software is archaic and makes everything "hard"
4. I'm still not convinced they understand the urgency or have made it a
priority to find a quick solution.
I'm not sure why they can't do this:
-Start with MTC certificates
-verify the certificates
-Allow verified buyers the ability to use a version of the vat exemption system
at checkout: Enter a pin or tax ID that disables tax.
I would urge everyone to contact CE_Tanja and let them know her know you want
exemptions.

| There are delays coming out of Europe right now. I would recommend starting by
politely asking the seller for an update.

| Tanya,
Thank you for your reply. I think the concern is the community was told this
issue was decided at a meeting and now it appears that bricklink is starting
over on a decision that was already made over a year ago:

Yes. We have determined this is a definite need for our customer base and we
are moving forward with it. The first step is to meet with our third-party service
who calculates the tax for us. Then we will need to set up a method of receiving
and retaining the exemption documents.

| Tanya,
Will there be a future session regarding business to business sales and tax exemption
in the USA?
Kind Regards,
Andrew
