How do Canadian GST, HST, and QST work on RenX?
Does RenX collect Canadian indirect tax?
Yes, where Canadian rules require it. Purchases may be subject to GST or HST and, where applicable, provincial tax. Québec also has a separate QST system.
How is the tax determined?
The tax and rate depend on the buyer’s province, the service, the provider’s location and registrations, and the buyer’s tax information.
Keep your Canadian billing address and province current. If you are purchasing for a business registered for GST/HST, provide the applicable registration number when requested. Québec businesses may also need to provide QST information.
For an eligible cross-border business purchase, valid registration information may change whether RenX collects tax. It does not make every charge tax-free. Review the tax and final total shown before payment.
What should service providers do?
Keep your Canadian GST/HST and QST registrations current. You remain responsible for determining whether you must register, collect or self-account for tax, issue required records, and report your income.
When RenX is required to collect tax as the marketplace, the buyer’s receipt identifies the amount collected. Your settlement record separately identifies the transaction amounts and provider charges recorded for the task.
How can I see how much tax is charged?
RenX shows the estimated tax before payment. The charged amount appears on the buyer’s invoice or receipt and relevant provider tax and fee entries appear in the settlement record.
