Tax Information
The purpose of the ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog Tax Information web page is to provide the University a one-stop resource of tax information that is pertinent to University operations.
ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog is a federally tax exempt organization. The exemption is automatically granted based on our status as a state governmental agency, we neither apply for exemption nor receive an exemption letter from regulatory authorities. We can provide a letter from the Chancellor's Office or campus Chief Financial Officer (CFO) attesting to the tax exempt status.
California State University Monterey Bay’s Tax Exempt Status
W-9 Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification
ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog is a property tax exempt organization. California Revenue and Tax Code Section 202.2 states that property used exclusively for public schools, community colleges, state colleges, and state universities, including the University of California, is exempt. The exemption form property taxes does not extend to property assessments, like the Monterey County mosquito abatement assessments.
ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog is not a sales and use tax exempt organization. All purchases made by ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog are subject to state, regional and local tax rates. Currently the campus is split between three sales and use tax districts: Unincorporated Monterey County, the City of Marina, and the City of Seaside.
