Sales Tax

If your organization is tax exempt, Hachette Book Group requires a resale certificate or proof of exemption.  You may obtain these documents using the links provided below. 

**Please note that sales tax is contingent on the shipping address, not the billing address, on each invoice.  Please make sure to provide certificates for all states to which you ship.  

If you ship to multiple states, please use the multijurisdiction information.  If we do not have a resale certificate or proof of exemption on file, we are required by law to include sales tax on all invoices.  (Some states also require that we tax freight charges.)  Please note that all shipments to Canada will incur GST and/or HST where appropriate.  If you feel you are exempt on shipments to Canada, please contact us.

You may submit this information in the method most convenient for you:
