Special Notice
Contractors who have completed this application in the past, please note the
following changes in procedure:
The Department will no longer issue individual Certificates of exemption to
subcontractors. Only prime contractors will receive a Contractor’s
Exemption Certificate on exempt projects.
Upon receipt of the Certificate, the prime contractor should make a copy for
each subcontractor involved in the project and complete it by filling in the
subcontractor’s name and address and signing it.
The original Certificate should always be retained by the prime contractor.
Copies of all Certificates that the prime contractor issued to
subcontractors should be kept at the prime contractor’s place of business
for a minimum of three years and be available for inspection in the event
of an audit.
Once an 89# has been assigned to you, please use the next five numbers
following it for any applications submitted for future projects. This
should be your permanent number. For instance, if you were assigned 89-
12345-0001, every application submitted thereafter should contain 89-12345
on the application. The succeeding numbers will be issued by the Department
of Revenue. DO NOT enter what you believe to be the next in sequence as
this may delay processing of your application.
