OMB Control Number, Title, and Any Associated Form(s) 9000-0059, North Carolina Sales Tax Certification. B. Need and Uses This clearance covers the information that contractors must submit to comply with the requirements of the Federal Acquisition Regulation clause at 52.229-2, North Carolina State and Local Sales and Use Tax. This clause requires contractors for construction or vessel repair to be performed in North Carolina to provide certified statements of the cost of the property purchased from each vendor and the amount of sales or use taxes paid. The North Carolina Sales and Use Tax Act authorizes counties and incorporated cities and towns, to obtain each year from the Commissioner of Revenue of the State of North Carolina, a refund of sales and use taxes indirectly paid on building materials, supplies, fixtures, and equipment that become a part of or are annexed to any building or structure in North Carolina. However, to substantiate a refund claim for sales or use taxes paid on purchases of building materials, supplies, fixtures, or equipment by a contractor, the Government must secure from the contractor certified statements setting forth the cost of the property purchased from each vendor and the amount of sales or use taxes paid. Similar certified statements by subcontractors must be obtained by the general contractor and furnished to the Government. The Government will use the information as evidence to establish exemption from State and local taxes. C. Annual Burden *Respondents:* 182. *Total Annual Responses:* 182. *Total Burden Hours:* 227.5.
