# Tax Exempt Clients

You can customize the [sales tax](/live-examples/miscellaneous/sales-tax.md) charged to any client just in case you need to make certain clients tax exempt.

This can be done at the State level (i.e tax exempt in DC, but not VA) or for the type of item ordered (i.e food is tax exempt, but not alcohol).

After you add the tax exemption, all of their orders will be tax exempt moving forward.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Good to know:** [add a custom field](/live-examples/miscellaneous/customize-order-form.md) to your checkout form so clients can upload their tax exempt certificate
{% endhint %}
