Taxes
My business is not based in Florida. Why am I being charged tax?
With Florida passing tax nexus legislation in 2021, all companies participating in out-of-state commerce must support the taxation of sales per the tax regulations of the purchaser's municipality (i.e. state, county, province, parish, etc.).
By the nature of your business as a Mud Hole Advantage customer, you are exempt from this tax. However, Mud Hole is required to have documentation on file of your tax exempt status from your purchasing location.
At your earliest convenience, please forward documentation of your local (state, county, province, parish, etc.) tax exempt status for our records. We must receive your documentation in order to avoid taxation of your Mud Hole Advantage purchases.
Documentation can be emailed directly to advantage@mudhole.com.
