Metabee is committed to providing a transparent and compliant shopping experience globally. As part of our commitment, and in accordance with evolving U.S. sales tax regulations, we are obligated to collect sales tax on certain orders shipped to the United States. This page aims to help you understand U.S. sales tax and its implications for your orders.

I. What are U.S. Sales Taxes? U.S. sales tax is a consumption tax levied by state and local governments on the sale of goods and services. As a marketplace facilitator, Metabee is required by relevant U.S. State Sales Tax Laws to collect Sales Tax and remit it to the relevant tax authorities. Items sold on Metabee.com and shipped to locations within the U.S., including its territories, may be subject to tax.

II. Why Does Metabee Collect U.S. Sales Taxes? Following the landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc. in 2018, states can now require out-of-state sellers (including international entities like Metabee) to collect sales tax if they meet certain "economic nexus" thresholds. These thresholds are typically based on a certain dollar amount of sales or a certain number of transactions within a specific state in a calendar year. As Metabee's business has grown and is anticipated to grow, we have met and continuously monitor these economic nexus thresholds. Consequently, we are obligated to register and begin collecting sales tax in states where we meet the threshold, in order to comply with local tax regulations.

III. How is Tax Calculated? The amount of tax charged on your order depends on several factors, including the following:

• Type of Item or Service Purchased: Different items may be subject to different tax rates or exemptions.
• Time and Location of Fulfillment: The time and location where the order is fulfilled can influence the applicable tax rate.
• Shipment or Delivery Address of Your Order: This is the primary factor in determining the applicable tax rate. The sales tax rate applied to your order will be the combined state and local rates of the address where your order is delivered or fulfilled. For example, if you live in a state that does not impose a sales tax, you may still see tax calculated on your order if it is shipped to another state.
• Type of Receiving Address: Tax rates may also differ for various reasons, such as residential versus business addresses.
• Total Selling Price: The total selling price of an item will generally include item-level shipping and handling charges, item-level discounts, and gift-wrapping charges. Sales tax will be calculated based on this total amount.

These factors may change between the time you place an order and when your shipment is complete. As a result, the tax calculated on your order may be adjusted. We display an estimated "Sales Tax" to be collected at Check Out when confirming an an order. This estimated tax may then be updated later when your order is finalized and completed.

IV. Can Sales Tax Be Exempt? Sales tax is charged on shipments in most states that have a sales tax unless you are sales tax exempt and you provide us with a valid sales tax exemption certificate. If you are exempt from paying sales tax at the time of purchase, you must contact us via email at support@metabee.com and provide a valid sales tax exemption certificate and number, if applicable, for the state you are shipping to. We will not refund the sales tax collected if a valid certificate is not provided. If you provide a certificate that is not accepted for any reason by any governmental or regulatory authority, and Metabee is required to pay tax on your purchase, you will reimburse Metabee for the amount of such tax, and Metabee's reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the payment and collection of such tax.

V. How to Submit Your Exemption Certificate? Please submit your valid sales tax exemption certificate directly to us via email.

Email: support@metabee.com

To ensure a smooth and timely review process, please include the following information in your email:

• Your Metabee Order Number(s) (if applicable for existing orders).
• Your Metabee Account Email Address.
• The valid sales tax exemption certificate document (attached as PDF or image).

VI. Important Notice for Exempt Customers

• Information Accuracy: You acknowledge that the tax exemption information provided is correct and the tax-exempt organization is recognized as valid by the state or U.S. territory in which you've enrolled. The customer will be responsible for tax authorities' penalties due to providing wrong or deceptive exemption information.
• Failure to Submit Certificate: If you do not submit a valid sales tax exemption certificate to Metabee, Metabee will be required to collect sales tax on your purchases and remit the tax to your state.
• Mixed Product Orders: If some of the products you buy from Metabee are taxable and some are not, please provide a sales tax exemption certificate, and we will not charge you sales tax on any purchases. Typically, your responsibility would be to identify and calculate your taxable purchases each month and remit any sales tax (or use tax) due directly to your state.
• Drop Shipping to Another State: Sales tax collection is based on the address you are shipping to. The tax collected will be based on the ship-to-location tax requirements. In order not to be charged the tax, you would need to have a tax-exempt certificate on file for the state you are shipping to.
• Federal Agencies: The Federal Government and Federal Agencies are generally exempt from paying state sales taxes.

VII. States and U.S. Territories Where Sales Tax May Apply Metabee is actively monitoring and complying with sales tax requirements in all U.S. states and territories that impose sales tax. Consequently, items sold on Metabee.com and shipped to destinations in most U.S. states and territories may be subject to tax. This includes, but is not limited to, states such as California, Texas, New York, and Florida. Please note that the specific list of applicable states and territories may adjust as tax regulations evolve.
