If I sell services to clients outside Canada, do I have to collect GST/HST?
Allan Madan, CA
In determining whether you are responsible for collecting sales tax, you need to determine whether the services you provide occur in Canada or outside Canada. If the service is being performed outside Canada, your taxable supplies are considered export services and you do not have to charge GST/HST. However, if the recipient of the service is in Canada when the service is performed, you will have to collect and remit HST on sales.
