Understanding Canadian Sales Taxes
In short, every Canadian purchase carries 5% federal GST, and most provinces add their own tax on top: 13% HST in Ontario, 15% HST in the Atlantic provinces, GST plus PST in BC, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba, and GST plus QST in Quebec. Alberta and the territories charge 5% GST only. Rates verified June 2026.
What is GST?
The Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a 5% federal tax applied to most goods and services sold in Canada. It's collected by businesses and remitted to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). All provinces and territories are subject to GST, though in HST provinces it's combined with provincial tax.
What is HST?
The Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) combines the federal GST with provincial sales tax into a single tax. Ontario charges 13% HST, while New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island charge 15% HST. This simplifies tax collection for businesses operating in these provinces.
What is PST?
Provincial Sales Tax (PST) is charged separately from GST in British Columbia (7%), Saskatchewan (6%), and Manitoba (7%). Quebec charges Quebec Sales Tax (QST) at 9.975%. Alberta, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut have no provincial sales tax.
How to Calculate Tax
To add tax: Multiply the pre-tax amount by the tax rate. For example, $100 in Ontario (13% HST) = $100 × 1.13 = $113 total.
To extract tax: Divide the total by (1 + tax rate). For example, $113 in Ontario = $113 ÷ 1.13 = $100 pre-tax, with $13 tax.
