2.2 Special Notes regarding FAR 52.229-3: Federal, State and Local Taxes:

Offerors are hereby notified that under New York Consolidated Laws, Chapter 60 - Tax, Article 28 - Sales and Compensating Use Taxes, Part 3 – 1116 (2), the United States of America, any of its agencies and instrumentalities, is immune from taxation when it is the purchaser, user, or consumer, or when it sells services or property of a kind not ordinarily sold by private persons.

Pursuant to Chapter 60, Article 28, Part 3-1115(17), a contractor’s purchase of such building and construction materials within New York to be incorporated into the real property belonging to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is subject to the exemption from the New York State sales and compensating use taxes. To take advantage of the tax exemption the successful offeror under this solicitation must complete ST-120.1 “Contractor Exempt Purchase Certificate” when it purchases construction materials for this contract and keep on file as required by the state of New York tax laws.

Notwithstanding FAR 52.229-3, all bids received in response to this solicitation are presumed to reflect this tax exemption and therefore should not include the New York’s state sales and compensating use taxes on sales of materials for incorporation into VA real estate under this contract.
