On page 3 caught my attention under trusts. Proof of the income tax number of the fund or certificate of exemption from tax.
First what is an account: (2) "Account", except as used in "account for", means a right to payment of a monetary obligation, whether or not earned by performance, (i) for property that has been or is to be sold, leased, licensed, assigned, or otherwise disposed of, (ii) for services rendered or to be rendered, http://www.law.cornell.edu/ucc/9/article9.htm
Low and behold as it never fails I came across this:
Tax Exemption Cards:
OFM issues tax exemption cards to eligible foreign missions, mission personnel and their eligible family members consistent with international law, domestic statute, and the underlying principle of reciprocity. Tax cards provide point-of-sale exemption from sales and use taxes throughout the United States. This system provides immediate relief from taxes without the administrative burdens, costs, and delays commonly associated with reimbursement systems.

Federal government. Sales made directly to the federal government are exempt from sales tax. You must indicate the name of the federal agency or department making the purchase.

(2) "United States" defined.
(a) For the purposes of this rule, the term "United States" means the federal government, including the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, its departments, and federal entities exempt from state or local taxation by reason of specific federal statutory exemption.
The mere fact that an entity is a federal entity, such as an instrumentality or a federal corporation, does not mean that the entity is immune from tax. The taxability of a federal entity and whether or not the entity is required to collect and remit retail sales/use tax depends on the benefits and immunities conferred upon it by Congress. Thus, to determine the current taxable status of federal entities, the relevant portion of the federal law should be examined.
(b) "United States" does not include entities associated with but not a part of the United States, such as the National Guard (an instrumentality of the state of Washington). Nor does it include entities contracting with the United States government to administer its programs. http://apps.leg.wa.gov/wac/default.aspx?cite=458-20-190
