HST Reporting Periods and Filing Frequency in Toronto

CRA determines your HST reporting period based on annual taxable supplies generated by your business. Toronto businesses earning under $1.5 million file once per year, those with revenue between $1.5 million and $6 million submit quarterly returns, and businesses surpassing $6 million report monthly.

Revenue growth or fluctuations trigger changes to your assigned reporting period. CRA permits businesses to elect shorter reporting periods when faster input tax credit recovery benefits cash flow. We track your revenue thresholds, notify you when filing frequency adjustments become necessary, and process all changes with CRA to maintain your HST account in good standing.

Got Any Questions?

GST is the federal Goods and Services Tax charged at 5% across Canada. HST combines GST with provincial sales tax into a single harmonized rate. Ontario’s HST rate is 13%, combining 5% federal GST and 8% provincial PST. Businesses registered for HST collect and remit both portions through one return filed with CRA.

Most goods and services sold in Ontario are taxable at 13% HST. However, some items are zero-rated, meaning HST applies at 0%, including basic groceries, prescription medications, and exports. Other supplies are exempt from HST entirely, such as childcare services, medical services, and educational services.

Zero-rated supplies are taxable at 0% HST, allowing you to claim input tax credits on related expenses. Exempt supplies are not subject to HST, and you cannot claim credits on expenses used to provide them. Understanding this distinction affects your cash flow and credit recovery. We help classify your supplies correctly to maximize eligible credits.

CRA requires businesses to register for HST once taxable revenues exceed $30,000 over four consecutive quarters. Registered businesses must collect HST on taxable sales, maintain proper records for six years, file returns by assigned deadlines, and remit net tax owing.

Non-residents conducting business in Canada may need to register for HST and file returns with CRA. Foreign business owners can also claim input tax credits on Canadian expenses. US citizens living in Canada have additional obligations including FBAR reporting for foreign accounts.

Yes. CRA allows businesses to request a shorter reporting period for faster input tax credit recovery. Monthly or quarterly filing returns credits sooner than annual filing. You can also request changes if your revenue crosses thresholds that require more frequent reporting.

CRA assigns filing frequency based on annual taxable supplies. Toronto businesses under $1.5 million file annually, those between $1.5 million and $6 million file quarterly, and businesses exceeding $6 million file monthly.

Late HST filings trigger penalties of 1% of balance owing plus 0.25% for each additional month, up to 12 months. Interest accrues daily on unpaid amounts at CRA prescribed rates.
