THIS CERTIFICATE MUST BE COMPLETED IN ITS ENTIRETY.
WHO MAY USE THIS CERTIFICATE? Only those businesses and organizations that are registered to collect Kansas sales tax and
provide their Kansas sales tax registration number on this form may use it to purchase inventory without tax. For additional information
see Publication KS-1520, Kansas Exemption Certificates.
Nonprofit groups or organizations exempt by law from collecting tax on their retail sales of tangible personal property (such as a PTA or
a nonprofit youth development organization) should use the exemption certificate issued to it by the Department of Revenue when
buying items for resale.
Wholesalers and buyers from other states not registered in Kansas should use the Multi-Jurisdiction Exemption Certificate, Form ST-
28M, to purchase their inventory. HOWEVER, if the inventory item purchased by an out-of-state retailer who has sales tax nexus with
Kansas is drop shipped to a Kansas location, the out-of-state retailer must provide to the third party vendor a Kansas sales tax
registration number, either on this certificate or the Multi-Jurisdiction Exemption Certificate, for the sale to be exempt. If the out-of-state
retailer DOES NOT have sales tax nexus with Kansas, it may provide the third party vendor a resale exemption certificate evidencing
qualification for a resale exemption, regardless of the state in which the retailer is registered for sales tax.
Contractors, subcontractors, or repairmen may not use this certificate to purchase their materials, parts, or tools. Retailer/
Contractors should use a Retailer/Contractor Exemption Certificate, Form ST-28W, to purchase their resale inventory.
WHAT PURCHASES ARE EXEMPT? Only goods or merchandise intended for resale (inventory) are exempt. Tools, equipment, fixtures,
supplies, and other items purchased for business or personal use are TAXABLE since the buyer is the final consumer of the property.
The items purchased with this certificate must correspond to the type of business buying them. For example, a retail clothing store may
only reasonably purchase items of wearing apparel and accessories with this certificate. All other kinds of items are not usually sold by a
clothing store to their customers and, therefore, cannot be purchased with this certificate.
LABOR SERVICES. This certificate applies ONLY to items of tangible personal property. A contractor may not use an exemption
certificate to purchase the labor services of another contractor or subcontractor. Taxable labor services performed by a contractor can
ONLY be purchased without tax with a Project Exemption Certificate issued by the department or its authorized agent.
RETAINING THIS CERTIFICATE: Sellers should retain a completed copy of this certificate in their records for at least three years from the
date of sale. A seller is relieved of liability for the tax if it obtains a completed exemption certificate from a purchaser with which the seller
has a recurring business relationship. A certificate need not be renewed or updated when there is a recurring business relationship
between the buyer and seller. A recurring business relationship exists when a period of no more than 12 months elapses between
sales transactions.
ST-28A (Rev. 6/09)
