Are prices in Canada inclusive or exclusive tax? | Are prices in Canada inclusive or exclusive tax? | ||
'''Answer:''' | |||
Prices are exclusive of taxes and surcharges. In Canada, all goods and services are subject to a 5% federal Goods and Services Tax (called GST) which is charged at point of sale. In British Columbia, there is an additional provincial sales tax (PST): | |||
* goods and services except for food and medicine at 7% | |||
* alcohol at 10% | |||
Non residents can collect their receipts and submit a claim at the airport when leaving the country to be compensated for the GST and PST collected during their stay. Look for "Tax-Free" signs and brochures. | |||
