PA Sales Tax Exemption Certificate

New Enterprise REC is required by the state of Pennsylvania to charge sales tax on any meter not having a Pennsylvania Sales Tax Exemption Certificate.

If you are using the meter for your personal use (home, barn, personal garage, etc) please check the first or last box. Should the meter be used as a business that is tax exempt, please check box 5. If you have a sales tax exemption number, please include it with the reason. Be sure to sign and date the form and return to the office. We must receive the certificates back within 30 days to prevent sales tax from being charged. If you miss the 30 day deadline, it isn't too late. Send your completed certificate and we can remove the sale tax from future bills. An exemption certificate is needed for each meter location.

When completing the certificate, please be sure you provide:

1. The percentage of exemption you are claiming - determining the proper percentage is your responsibility.

2. If you have a Special Exemption (i.e., religious organization, volunteer fire company, etc.), list that organizations Exemption Number on the certificate.

3. Sign and date the certificate.

We cannot accept any exemption certificate until all of the information requested above is provided. If you have questions about the Pennsylvania State Sales Tax or your account, please contact us.

Sincerely,
New Enterprise Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc.
