GST Calculator Canada
5% federal, and whatever the province adds.
Rates change with budgets and local ballot measures, and the rate that applies depends on the delivery address and product category. Treat these as planning figures, not as a filing.

Federal GST is 5%. Provinces either harmonise it into HST, charge a separate PST, or charge nothing extra — so the rate a customer pays depends entirely on the province.
How the GST Calculator Canada works
Federal GST is 5% everywhere in Canada. What the customer actually pays depends entirely on the province: harmonised provinces fold it into a single HST, PST provinces charge a separate provincial tax alongside, and Alberta charges nothing extra.

Frequently asked questions
What is the GST rate in Canada?
5% federally. Combined rates range from 5% in Alberta and the territories to 15% in the Atlantic HST provinces, depending on what the province adds.
Which rate do I charge?
The rate for the customer's province under the place of supply rules — for shipped goods, the delivery address. An Alberta business shipping to Ontario charges 13% HST, not 5%.
When must I register?
Above C$30,000 of taxable revenue over four consecutive quarters. Below that you are a small supplier and registration is optional — though registering lets you claim input tax credits, which often makes it worthwhile.
What are input tax credits?
Recovery of GST and HST paid on business purchases, deducted from what you collected. PST in most provinces is not recoverable this way, which makes it a genuine cost rather than a pass-through.
