How sales tax works in Nunavut
Nunavut has no territorial sales tax, so taxable sales carry only the federal 5% GST. The CRA's rate table shows Nunavut at 5% GST and 0% PST.
The Canada Revenue Agency administers the GST. For an Iqaluit business, that means one federal account and one rate on invoices for sales made in the territory.
Who has to register and charge it
Small suppliers do not have to register. Once your taxable sales pass $30,000 in a single calendar quarter or over four consecutive calendar quarters, you must register with the CRA and charge 5% GST. Our registration guide has the details.
Self-employed taxi and commercial ride-sharing drivers are an exception and must register even below $30,000. Registered businesses can use the tax calendar to keep track of filing dates.
Selling to customers outside Nunavut
Place-of-supply rules work in both directions. Under the CRA's rules, goods are generally taxed in the province or territory where they are delivered. A supplier in Ontario shipping goods to a customer in Nunavut should therefore charge 5% GST, not Ontario's 13% HST, which is worth checking on invoices from southern suppliers.
When a Nunavut business sells outward, the same rule applies: goods delivered to Nova Scotia take 14% HST, and most services billed to a Toronto address take 13%. The rates by province guide covers provinces with a separate provincial tax.
Frequently asked questions
Is there PST in Nunavut?
No. Nunavut has no territorial sales tax, so only the 5% GST applies to taxable sales.
How do I remove GST from a total in Nunavut?
Divide the total by 1.05. For example, $525 divided by 1.05 is $500, so the GST is $25.
Why was I charged 13% HST on an order shipped to Nunavut?
Goods are generally taxed where they are delivered, so goods delivered in Nunavut should carry 5% GST. Ask the seller to check the shipping address used for tax.
Do I charge GST to a client in Alberta?
Yes, if you are registered. Alberta has no provincial sales tax, so an Alberta client is charged 5% GST.
When must a Nunavut business register for GST?
When taxable sales pass $30,000 in one calendar quarter or over four consecutive calendar quarters, unless an exception such as taxi services applies earlier.
