Exported goodsGoods (other than excisable goods such as beer and tobacco) that are ordinarily GST/HST taxable supplies may be zero-rated if they are exported from Canada. This means that you do not charge GST/HST on taxable sales if you deliver the goods or make them available to a purchaser outside Canada. Effective July 1, 2006, the GST rate is 6%, and the HST is 14%. When the purchaser takes delivery of the goods in Canada, you do not charge GST/HST if the following conditions are met:
If the above conditions for zero-rating are not met, you have to charge and the purchaser has to pay GST/HST on taxable supplies. Note A purchaser (other than a consumer) who is registered for GST/HST purposes can apply for authorization to issue an export certificate, which, when provided to the supplier, will cause the goods to be taxed at 0%.
