Do we need to pay sales tax?

We are located in California, so we do not collect sales tax for any shipments outside of California.

For shipments within California, we charge 7.25% sales tax when applicable. 
Sales Tax is applicable for all deliveries within California, unless the customer has a California Resale Certificate Form (click to download) on file with us.

For non-profits and religious organizations, the State of California states that "No general exemption is given for nonprofit and religious organizations. Although many nonprofit and religious organizations are exempt from federal and state income tax, there is no similar broad exemption from California sales and use tax. Generally, nonprofit groups' sales are taxable, as are their purchases. In other words, nonprofit and religious organizations, in general, are treated just like other California sellers and buyers for sales and use tax purposes." Click here to get a copy of California Publication 18, which provides more detail on this subject.
