Packaging Company Obtains Tax Exemption On Company Jet

Aero And Marine Tax Professionals Assists Company In Obtaining Sales Tax Exemption

SACRAMENTO, CA: Aero & Marine Tax Pros (http://aeromarinetaxpros.com/) an aircraft sales tax specialist firm in Northern California, recently assisted a packaging and freight company in obtaining a sales tax exemption on the purchase of a Cessna Citation Mustang jet. The sales tax exemption was granted by the California Board of Equalization (BOE).

An executive from the company stated “We’re in the packaging and freight forwarding business. We cater to high technology companies: high value equipment to be packaged and shipped around the world. The aircraft is used to get to our different locations. We have seven or eight locations in the US. We use the aircraft to go to them when it makes sense. In some cases we do fly commercial. In others we look at how many people are going, the time factors, and the location, and decide if the airline is going to work or not. For example, if four or five of us are going to Austin, TX it can sometimes be difficult to get a direct flight. We need to be there at a certain time, and leave at a certain time, and in that case the airlines just don’t make sense. Aero & Marine Tax Professionals has gotten us tax exemptions on two airplanes that we’ve had. It’s been a great service. They are very professional, easy to work with and it has been successful in both cases. I really like the ease of working with them. Good service. I would recommend them to others.”

Tom Alston, founder and owner of Aero & Marine Tax Professionals, stated: “This was our second time working with this client. We build trusted partnerships with companies because they can see the professionalism we use in our work, and they know they can come to us to get a result. If they need our assistance in the future, we’ll be more than happy to work with them again.”

Commercial Fishing Company Obtains Sales Tax Exemption On Boat

Aero & Marine Tax Professionals Assists Fishing Company Obtain Tax Exemption on Vessel Purchase

SACRAMENTO, CA: Aero & Marine Tax Professionals (http://aeromarinetaxpros.com/) recently assisted a commercial fishing company in obtaining a vessel sales tax exemption on the purchase of a commercial fishing vessel. The California Board of Equalization (BOE) granted the sales tax exemption on the case.

An executive from the company stated: “We work in the commercial fishing business. I was unaware that I was going to get a bill for sales tax on the vessel. I thought it was going to be a simple form to fill out that would make it go away, but that wasn’t the case. I sought further advice, and that’s when I contacted Aero & Marine Tax Professionals. A friend in Santa Rosa referred me to them. He deals with maritime boat transfers and permits. Working with Aero & Marine was very precise. They needed information, and handled everything in a really precise way. The whole thing takes a long time, it’s a long procedure, but their staff gave me the precise information needed. I would most definitely recommend them to others.”

Tom Alston, founder and owner of Aero & Marine Tax Pros, stated: “We get so many recommendations because our reputation is built on success. We can take a case that others have pronounced hopeless and can turn it around so the client can end up legally avoiding sales tax on the purchase of a vessel. This was our first time working with this company. We’ll be more than happy to assist them if they purchase another boat for their operations. All in all it went very well.”
