# Delete exemptions

Deletes one or more exemptions for the Customer specified in the request url. To delete a single exemption, include a valid exemptionId in the request url. If no exemptionId is included in the request url, all exemptions for the specified customers will be deleted. 

An Exemption contains information about a Customer's eligibility for exemption from tax based on criteria defined when the Exemption is created or updated.

This is for our legacy exemption solution.  If unsure of which exemption API to use, please reach out to support.
