GST/HST-ready invoicing for Canadian businesses

Canadian invoicing means charging the right tax for each customer province, showing your GST/HST number, and getting paid quickly. Billbooks handles the multi-province tax so your invoices stay compliant wherever your clients are.

Built for how you invoice

The right tax by province

Billbooks applies GST, HST, or GST plus a provincial tax based on your customer province, so you charge the correct rate every time.

Your GST/HST number shown

Your registration number and the tax breakdown appear on every invoice, so clients can claim their input tax credit.

Get paid faster

Add payment options and automatic reminders so clients pay by card or bank transfer and you follow up less.

GST, HST and PST across Canada

Canada has no single sales-tax rate. There is a federal GST of 5%, which some provinces blend with their provincial tax into one Harmonized Sales Tax: for example 13% in Ontario, 15% in New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador and Prince Edward Island, and 14% in Nova Scotia. Alberta and the territories charge only the 5% GST. British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Quebec charge the 5% GST plus a separate provincial tax. The rate you charge generally follows the customer province. You must register for GST/HST once your revenue passes CAD 30,000. Billbooks applies the right rate by province and shows your GST/HST number.

Questions

Does Billbooks handle GST, HST and PST?

Yes. Billbooks applies the correct tax based on your customer province, whether that is 5% GST, an HST rate, or GST plus a provincial tax, and shows the breakdown on the invoice.

Does my GST/HST number appear on invoices?

Yes. Your GST/HST registration number is shown on invoices, which the CRA requires on sales of CAD 100 or more so your clients can claim their input tax credit.

What is the registration threshold?

You must register for GST/HST once your revenue from taxable sales passes CAD 30,000 in a single calendar quarter or over four consecutive quarters. Below that, registration is optional.

How do clients pay?

Connect a payment gateway so clients pay by card or bank transfer straight from the invoice, and add automatic reminders so you get paid on time.
