Yes, we accept school (and government agency) purchase orders!

Please note: After adding items, you will find a green purchase order checkout button at the bottom of your shopping cart page.

SALES TAX EXEMPTIONS - Because we are located in Florida, we are only required to charge sales tax when an order is shipped to an address within our home state. If your order is shipping outside of Florida, no sales tax will be applied and there is nothing you need to do. If your order is shipping within Florida, please send us a copy of your Florida Sales Tax Exemption Form (DR-14) so that we can adjust your account to remove sales tax. Please do this before printing and processing your Purchase Order request so that the balance due is correct. 

Purchase orders must:

  1. be a bona fide company document and signed by a qualified representative of the school.
  2. state both the shipping and billing address as well as contact name and phone numbers.
  3. include the order number (or pdf order details sent by us) so that we can retrieve all details about the order (color choices, etc.).
  4. include shipping fees (if any) and total amount approved.
  5. include payment terms per your school requirements and details about how to submit invoice for payment.
  6. purchase order payee details should include the following info:

The Simple Stencil - P.O. Box 358998 Gainesville, Florida 32635

If you need a copy of our W-9 for your tax records you can download it here. If you need us to complete a vendor application, please email support@thesimplestencil.com. 

Sales tax will not be applied to your school purchase. However, if you are located within the state of Florida, you will need to send us your tax exemption (Form DR-14) before taxes can be removed.
