Sales Tax
The State of Montana has no general sales tax.
Because there is no general sales tax, the state does not provide a sales tax exemption number. Vendors are often asked for their sales tax exemption number when ordering products from manufacturers or out-of-state wholesalers. Since Montana does not provide a sales tax exemption number we suggest that you use the one number that is unique to your business, either your Social Security Number (SSN) or Federal Identification Number (FEIN).
The State of Montana does not have a general business license. However, some businesses are required to register and be licensed by the state. The license requirement depends on the type of business entity. If your business is required to be licensed you could use your license number as proof that you are in business when ordering supplies.
