Yesterday I received two messages from one of the BL CE accounts, informing me
that US sellers are now able to submit their reseller certificate, in order to
be allowed tax exempt purchases.

I'm seeing no announcement about this in the Community. Is this official
? Personally, I do not see myself making use of it going forward, as I don't
wish to acquire additional inventory.

Seems they added it to this page too:

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2467

Maybe it is just implemented and want to verify a few users first to see it all
works good before a wide announcement.

Yes, it is official. However, we limited the scope of communication to members
who had initially shown interest in the development of this feature.

Good news. Is this LEGO group or just LEGO Bricklink?

Just BrickLink, and just for reselling. Non-profits like schools are currently
not covered.

Kind Regards,

Officially 2 weeks, but since we are focusing on this at the moment, it should
be considerably less.

Hi Russell,

Glad this is finally coming together. I'm curious, will it eventually be
available for non-profits as well? I'm sure there will be interest in that.
One step at a time though, I guess.

Hello Admin Russell,

I have in the past couple years sent a couple emails to the helpdesk requesting
this feature and have asked for the feature to be added on multiple occasions.
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1390647

I sent a helpdesk request under other issues.

Since I need to send in a couple pdfs, hopefully there will be an email address
to attach the documentation to.
