WooCommerce Tax Exempt provides you a proper system through which you can give tax exemption to selected customers and user roles.

You can enable a customizable tax exemption form on My Account page to let customers submit the required files and other information to claim tax exemption. The store admin can review the submitted info and reject or grant the tax exemption requests from backoffice.
