Which taxes does the Northwest Territories calculator include?

Northwest Territories charges only the 5% federal GST, with no provincial sales tax. The calculator applies the combined 5% to the amount you enter.

How do I calculate sales tax in Northwest Territories?

Multiply the price by 5% and round to the nearest cent. A $100.00 sale carries $5.00 in GST, for a total of $105.00.

How do I back GST out of a price that includes it?

Divide the total by 1 plus the rate. A $105.00 total in Northwest Territories is $105.00 ÷ 1.05 = $100.00 before tax, so the tax is $5.00.

Do I charge Northwest Territories’s rate on sales from another province?

GST and HST follow the place of supply, which is generally the province where the buyer receives the goods or services, so a sale delivered to Northwest Territories is taxed at Northwest Territories’s rate. British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Manitoba register out-of-province sellers for their provincial sales tax under their own rules, and Quebec administers the QST.
