Sales and Use Tax Exemption Certificate

STATE OF MARYLAND PROMPT PAYMENT LAW

As an agency of the State of Maryland, UMBC is required by law to pay all vendors within 30 calendar days from the later of : The date UMBC received goods or services or the date UMBC received the proper original invoice.

 

HOW YOU CAN HELP US KEEP UMBC IN COMPLIANCE

• Date stamp each invoice you receive directly from the vendor. This date must reflect the day the invoice arrived on campus, not the day you reviewed it.
• Forward all original invoices to Accounts Payable without delay. Be sure to provide approvals where necessary.
• When you complete a Receiver or the Goods & Services stamp, be sure to state the date you took delivery of the goods or services, as well as the date you signed off.
• When blanket invoice copies are forwarded to you for approval, date stamp them on the day you receive them in your office and approve them without delay.
• If you choose to pay any of those invoices by Visa, rather than using your blanket order, please return the invoice copy to Accounts Payable with a note to that effect so we can clear the invoice from our pending file.
