USANA is required by law to collect and remit sales tax in all 50 states and all provinces of Canada. Our independent Brand Partners give us nexus or presence in the states and provinces, and by law, if we have nexus in these areas we are required to collect and pay tax to the different jurisdictions. Since we are a multi-level marketing company, the different jurisdictions prefer to deal with one company rather than each individual. If USANA did not collect the tax, each Brand Partner would be required to get a business license for each jurisdiction they sell in and collect and pay their own tax to these jurisdictions.

*USANA has registered with all states to collect sales tax on behalf of our Preferred Customers and Brand Partners and remit the tax to the states. We have registered in all states that charge sales tax, so our Brand Partners do not need to register.

Products and shipping are taxed based on the zip code of the buyer’s location for the city, county, state, and district where the order is being shipped.

 

Brand Partners and Affiliate Marketers

Brand Partners and Affiliates are charged tax on the Preferred Price plus 10 percent.

 

Preferred Customers

Preferred Customers pay tax on the price that they pay for items. In other words, if they purchase items at the Preferred Price, then their tax is charged on the Preferred Price. If they have an Auto Order, then their tax is charged on the Auto Order price.

 

Will Call Orders

Tax is based on the will call location for will call orders. For example, an order placed on an Idaho account for pickup at the Utah will call location will be charged Utah sales tax.

To locate the specific tax you will be charged, or if you feel you are being charged the wrong tax amount, contact customer service for further assistance.

If you want to be tax exempt, you need to fill out a Re-sale/Exemption certificate for the state in which you wish to be exempt. When USANA receives the certificate, we will change your account to tax exempt.

For Indian status, USANA needs to have a copy of the Indian status card before the person can be set up as tax exempt. Also, shipments must be shipped to the reservation.

Please note the following as well:
USANA does not accept resale certificates from California*, Mississippi, and Texas. Residents of these states are not eligible to turn in a resale certificate to remit their business taxes on their own with MLM-type marketing companies such as USANA. If you reside in these states, you will be required to pay all applicable taxes to USANA at the time of purchase.

*USANA can accept some resale certificates from California for those who meet certain requirements. Residents in California wanting to remit taxes on their own will need to contact USANA Customer Service with details of their resale certificate to see if they qualify.
