Indiana Sales Tax Exemption Setup for Corporation

Nonprofits with IRS tax-exempt status may register for nonprofit status with Indiana by submitting a Nonprofit Application for Sales Tax Exemption (Form NP-20A) online with the Department of Revenue eServices. Sales of tangible personal property by a qualified nonprofit organization are exempt from Indiana sales tax if the nonprofit makes the sale for nonprofit purposes and did not make more than $100,000 in sales during the current or previous calendar year. Should a qualified nonprofit exceed the $100,000 sales threshold, it must start collecting Indiana sales tax and continue collecting Indiana sales tax for each calendar year until it makes less than $100,000 in sales for two consecutive years. Note: Churches, monasteries, convents, Indiana public schools, parochial schools maintained by a recognized religion, and youth organizations focused on agriculture are not required to collect sales tax, even once they have reached $100,000 in sales.
