How can a nonprofit organization purchase MacBooks without paying taxes?

I have two MacBooks in my bag. I’m ordering them for a nonprofit organization and would like to know how we can purchase them without paying the taxes.

Tax-exempt orders

To place an order on behalf of a tax-exempt organization or individual, please call an Apple Store Specialist at 1‑800‑MY‑APPLE. You will need to provide proof of state tax-exempt status for the state where the product is being shipped. The organization or individual name on the order must exactly match the state tax-exempt certificate. Federal tax exemption certificates are not applicable.


Note, for corporate tax-exempt purchases, only corporate-issued credit cards for the applicable tax-exempt organization will be accepted as a method of payment (i.e., no cash, personal check, or personal credit cards will be accepted).

That would depend on what country and state the nonprofit is registered in and where the purchase is being made. The nonprofit organization I work for has to pay taxes on purchases.
