Tax Collection and Fees for the US

Sales tax will be remitted for all services and goods received by people living within applicable regions. Backblaze provides both services (ex: Computer Backup and B2 Cloud Storage) and goods (ex: USB Hard Drive Restores).

To determine if sales tax is applicable in your area, Backblaze uses the following:

  • For services - the billing address
  • For goods - the shipping address

Sales tax is based on location and is calculated by the zip code used to pay for the services and goods.

If you are a reseller or a sales tax-exempt entity, please submit your certificate by contacting Support. Please note that a resale or exemption certificate must be issued by the jurisdiction where you reside in (for services - billing address & for goods - shipping address). For example, if you reside in Ohio, the resale or exemption certificate must be issued by the state of Ohio.
