Requesting Duplicate Exemption Certificates

To request a duplicate Maryland sales and use tax exemption certificate, you must submit a request in writing on your nonprofit organization's official letterhead and indicate the reason for your request. Unless the reason for your request is that your original sales and use tax exemption certificate is lost or misplaced, you must include with your request your original sales and use tax exemption certificate or a duplicate certificate will not be issued.

You must also include your organization's Federal Employment Identification Number (FEIN) and indicate any change in the organization's name, address, phone number, and contact person. If there was a organization name change, you must include official documents from the Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation confirming the name change.
