Calculations and published rates, not tax, legal or financial advice. GST HST Calculator is an independent reference site. We are not the Canada Revenue Agency, Revenu Québec, a provincial ministry, an employment standards office, the City of Toronto or MPAC, and we are not accountants or lawyers.
Sales tax results
The GST, HST, PST, RST and QST calculators apply the general rates published by the Canada Revenue Agency and Revenu Québec to the amount you enter. Many goods and services are zero-rated or exempt (basic groceries, most health and educational services, residential rent), some provinces exempt items from their PST or the provincial part of the HST, and place-of-supply rules decide which province's rate applies to a sale. Check the CRA's guidance or a professional before you issue invoices or file a return.
Benefit estimates
The Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit (formerly the GST/HST credit) estimate uses the CRA's published amounts and thresholds. The CRA decides your entitlement from your tax return, custody and residency information; provincial and territorial programs paid with the benefit are not included. Your CRA notice is the only official amount.
Employment standards results
Minimum wage, vacation pay, overtime, notice and severance results show minimums under provincial employment standards laws (the Ontario Employment Standards Act, 2000, and the published rules of British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Nova Scotia and Quebec) and published minimum wage rates. Many jobs have exemptions or special rules, contracts and collective agreements can give more, and courts can award common-law notice far above statutory minimums. Contact your province's employment standards office (the CNESST in Quebec) or an employment lawyer about your own case.
Property tax results
The Toronto property tax estimate multiplies the assessed value you enter by the City of Toronto's published tax rates. Your bill can include capping, rebates, special charges and levies we do not model. Your tax bill and MPAC notice are the official amounts.
