Spotlight On: Charities & Nonprofits!
Colorado allows charitable organizations to be exempt from state-collected sales tax for purchases made in the conduct of their regular charitable functions and activities.
Organizations that are exempt from federal income tax under 501(c)(3) will generally be approved for a Certificate of Exemption in Colorado. This information also applies to government agencies and certain religious organizations.
However, this information does NOT apply to self-collecting taxation jurisdictions. Self-collecting jurisdictions establish their own tax regulations and collect their own sales/use tax. You will need to contact each self-collecting jurisdiction directly for information about the tax regulations in that jurisdiction.
