Canada workflow
Province selector before you invoice
Before a Canadian quote or invoice is useful, you need the province model right. This page exists to route business users toward GST only, HST, GST plus PST, or Quebec TPS plus TVQ without forcing them to memorize the whole table.
This is a workflow page, not a filing guide. Use it to choose the right display model and then move into the calculator or invoice tool.
Ontario HST 13%
One-line HST workflow for a common province.
British Columbia GST+PST
Two-part rate model inside the shared Canada calculator.
Quebec TPS/TVQ
Separate Quebec tax-line workflow.

Start with the customer province
The practical billing question is not 'what is the Canada tax rate?' but 'which province model am I using for this sale?'
That single decision changes whether you show one line of HST, one line of GST, or separate tax lines such as Quebec TPS and TVQ.
- HST provinces usually allow one visible HST line.
- GST-only provinces keep the display simple.
- GST+PST and GST+QST models need more explicit line handling.
When Quebec breaks the generic template
Quebec is the most obvious place where generic one-line tax display falls short. If the workflow hides both taxes in one total, the invoice becomes harder to audit and explain.
That is why CalcBusiness keeps a dedicated Quebec calculator and dedicated Quebec cluster pages.
Current scope
This cluster is intentionally limited to Canada sales-tax and invoice workflows.
- Source of truth is the shared
ca-tax-2026dataset. - These pages support quotes, invoices, province selection, and Quebec two-line tax display.
- Income tax, payroll, and province-specific filing edge cases stay out until official-source datasets and test fixtures are added.
