- It is not required to hold a seller’s permit pursuant to this part.
- It is not required to be registered pursuant to Section 6226 (a retailer)
- It is not a holder of a use tax direct payment permit as described in Section 7051.3.

Although the BOE has sent out notices and automatic registration letters, an organization that is a qualified purchaser but has not received notice from the BOE must still register by the April 15 deadline.

The compliance burden could be quite significant.
