State and/or Local Tax Exemption Forms are required from all customers claiming exemption from state or local taxes. State and Local Exemptions vary from state to state; therefore, Verizon does not provide exemption forms. Please obtain an exemption certificate from the governmental body imposing the tax. Exemption forms must be provided to Verizon before any tax exemption is placed on an account.

Please contact your local taxing authority if you have questions about state and local tax exemption. For Federal Excise Tax Exemption questions, including eligibility, please contact the IRS at 800-829-4933.
