How to Add Your Tax Exemption Information on CCK Outfitters

If you are tax-exempt, the system will prompt you to provide your exemption details when adding items to your cart. Here's how:

1. After adding items to your cart, scroll down on the page until you find the option labeled “I am Ag Exempt Texas Resident.”
2. Select the checkbox that says, “Yes, I reside in Texas and will upload my current Agricultural Exemption Certificate.”
3. A box will appear allowing you to upload an image of your tax exemption certificate.
4. Once uploaded, proceed to add your item to the cart.

Next, navigate to your cart. At the bottom right, there will be a text box titled: “Please include any details about your order here. Texas Customers, please enter your Texas Agricultural Exemption Number here as well.” Enter your Texas Agricultural Exemption Number in this box.

Your tax-exempt status will be processed, and we will update the total price of your order accordingly. A revised receipt with the updated, reduced amount will be sent via email. Going forward, if you have set up an account, future orders will automatically reflect your tax-exempt status.
