How much is the GST in Ontario Canada?

The GST rate across Canada, including Ontario is rated a 5%. The PST rate in Ontario is 8%. The total tax percent, GST & PST combined is 13%. On July 01, 2010, the existing GST & PST will be replaced by one tax called Harmonize Sales Tax (HST). The tax rate will be 13%. The price tags on items will now include the taxes. For example; A sweater price tag says, $13.56. You will pay ONLY $13.56 Right now, the same sweater price tag says. $12.00. You pay $12.00x5% GST=0.60 , $12.00x8% PST=0.96 Total cost $13.56 The only difference is your receipt will show $12.00 + GST/PST and total of $13.56. With the HST,you won't see the taxes, because it's included in the price. Your receipt will only $13.52 total price. Hope this helps.

You live in Alberta you are selling a used vehicle privately your question is do you have to charge GST on the vehicle that you are selling?

If you are not a licensed dealer, then you don't charge state tax. The dmv will collect the taxes due, you just have to make sure you fill in the amount you sell the car for on the back of the title or on a bill of sale. The above-answer is only partially correct: it does NOT apply to Alberta. GST is a federal sales tax and generally does NOT apply to sales of used items between private individuals in which the seller is not deriving income from sales of that category of item. GST may apply to a used car sale between private individuals only if: [1] PST (prov. sales tax) applies, and [2] the particular province's PST has been blended with the federal GST. In that case, that province's Vehicle Registry will charge and collect the PST/blended PST&GST. In the case of Alberta, since there is no PST, there cannot be a blended PST&GST; therefore no GST is payable or chargeable on the sale of a used vehicle between private individuals in which the seller is not deriving income from sales of used vehicles ("curbers"). The AB Motor Vehicle Registry only charges GST on the price of the 'products' it sells: license plates, driver's licenses, etc. Zero tax on the actual vehicle sale itself.


How does a receipt with HST tax look?

A receipt under an HST tax scheme looks almost the same as a receipt under the previous GST/PST tax scheme, but with only one tax line.For example, a separate tax scheme using GST and PST would apper as:Item: $19.99Subtotal: $19.99GST @ 5.00%: $1.00PST @ 7.00%: $1.40Total: $22.39Whereas a blended tax scheme using only HST would appear as:Item: $19.99Subtotal: $19.99HST @ 12.00%: $2.40Total: $22.39


Which items in Canada have taxes and which do not and which only has one of the two?

Every Province in Canada taxes differently. Some have PST which is a Provincial Sales Tax. Not all Provinces have a PST but all Provinces charge GST which is a Goods and Services Tax. You would have to be more specific as to where and what you are buying.


What is the PST in Ontario?

There is no PST, per se. Ontario has harmonized its provincial sales tax with the federal GST (Goods and Services Tax). What Ontario now has is the provincial component of the Harmonized Sales Tax and that portion sits at 8% for a combined total of 13% HST (5% federal component + 8% provincial component).
