On line 4 of the exemption certificate, the purchaser should select its type of business (e.g., retail trade, manufacturing or wholesale trade). On line 5 of the exemption certificate, the purchaser should select box L “other” and include the explanation “packaging used incidental to the sale of products.” For more information, see important notice 18-16.
