Harmonised sales tax by province.

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.

HST is a single tax administered federally, not GST and PST charged separately. You file one return and claim input tax credits against the whole amount, which is why harmonised provinces are simpler for sellers than PST provinces.

How the HST Calculator works

In harmonised provinces the federal GST and the provincial sales tax are combined into one tax, administered federally. That means one registration, one return and input tax credits against the whole amount — considerably simpler than the provinces that run GST and PST separately.

Not financial advice. Marketplace fees change, and they vary by country, plan and seller status. Every rate here is an editable default, not a quoted price — check the platform's current fee schedule before you price a product against it. This is not tax or business advice.

Frequently asked questions

Which provinces charge HST?

Ontario, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia. Ontario is 13%; the Atlantic provinces are 15%, except Nova Scotia which reduced its rate to 14%.

How is HST split?

5% is the federal component and the rest is provincial, but you do not account for them separately — it is a single tax on a single return. The split matters only for how the revenue is distributed.

Which province's rate do I charge?

The customer's, under the place of supply rules. For goods shipped to a customer, that is the delivery address — so an Ontario seller shipping to New Brunswick charges 15%, not 13%.

Can I claim input tax credits on HST?

Yes, on the full amount for purchases used in your commercial activity. That is the main advantage over PST provinces, where the provincial component is generally not recoverable.
