Sales Tax in Tennessee

The State of Tennessee requires the collection of sales taxes on certain products sold by Provident Metals and delivered to a Tennessee address.  These taxes must be collected on (1) accessory items, and (2) processed items.  All other products sold by Provident Metals are exempt from these taxes.

The following definitions apply to products on which taxes must be collected in Tennessee:

  • Accessory Items. Items such as holders, tubes, coin flips, and apparel.
  • Processed Items. Precious metals that have been processed by third parties into items that are valued on more than their precious metal content, such as statues or colorized coins.

Sales taxes in Tennessee are calculated at checkout on the Provident Metals website based on (1) the taxability of products sold by Provident Metals in Tennessee set forth above, and (2) the specific tax rates established by the taxing jurisdiction of the delivery address in Tennessee.

Provident Metals began collecting sales taxes in Tennessee on October 1, 2019.  Additionally, Tennessee enacted legislation in 2022 that eliminated the taxability of most items sold by Provident Metals.  This new legislation went into effect on May 27, 2022.  Our sales tax license number in Tennessee is 1001527243-SLC.
