Sales and Use Tax Direct Pay Permits

Covidien LP, doing business as Covidien (“Covidien”) and formally known as Tyco Healthcare Group LP, has received approval from various states to participate in a direct payment process for purposes of remitting use tax on purchases made. As a result, Covidien will be responsible for calculating, accruing, and remitting applicable use tax directly to the states identified below on our own behalf. To further clarify, we will self assess use tax due on purchases from your company that will be shipped to the states for which a certificate has been included herein.
