Additional
Use or Sales Taxes/VAT/GST
Depending on where you reside,
or where the training seminar is organized, local laws require that we charge Use, Sales, VAT or GST taxes to
your order. These taxes are in addition to the price of the
software or training and are listed separately on your
invoice. In some cases, these taxes may be excluded if you have
valid exemption documentation, as discussed below.
United States of America
When purchasing software from Arizona or Michigan, sales and/or use
tax may apply to your order (excludes training, consulting and
annual maintenance, unless sold as a bundle). The sales/use tax
percentage indicated below will be added to your invoice unless you
provide a Certificate of Exemption or Direct Pay Authority number
with your order.
- Arizona: 8.1% sales tax

If you are using the on-line store
to place your order, the system automatically adds the applicable
sales or use tax to the order total. If you have a valid Direct Pay

DISCLAIMER: TAX RULES CHANGE
FREQUENTLY. RELIASOFT OPERATES OFFICES AROUND THE WORLD AND MAKES
EVERY REASONABLE EFFORT TO BE CURRENT ON APPLICABLE TAX RULES. IF,
CONTRARY TO THE INFORMATION WE CURRENTLY HAVE, YOU ARE OBLIGATED TO
PAY CERTAIN TAXES WHICH RELIASOFT OR ITS SUBSIDIARIES HAVE NOT
COLLECTED, YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE TO SELF- ASSESS THE TAX AND
PAY IT TO THE APPROPRIATE TAX AUTHORITY IN YOUR COUNTRY. THIS ALSO
APPLIES TO CASES WHERE TAX EXEMPT STATUS CAN BE ACCEPTED BUT YOU ARE
OBLIGATED TO PAY ANY TAX DIRECTLY TO YOUR TAX AUTHORITIES (I.E.
RELIASOFT’S ACCEPTANCE OF YOUR TAX EXEMPT STATUS DOES NOT IMPLY THAT
YOU ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO DIRECTLY PAY ANY TAXES AS A COMPANY).

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR
THOSE CLAIMING TAX EXEMPT STATUS |
| The on-line store (and
invoices/quotes generated) will automatically include,
as a separate line item, any applicable taxes for
shipment/purchases to/from your region, regardless of
your tax exempt status. If you have provided a valid Tax
ID/VAT Registration number, this added tax itemized on
your invoice will not be billed to you. If paying by
check or issuing a Purchase Order, you can deduct the
tax amount from the total amount due shown on the
invoice/quote. |
