01

Sales tax in Nova Scotia

Nova Scotia charges a single Harmonized Sales Tax of 14 percent, combining the 5 percent federal GST with a 9 percent provincial portion. The province reduced its HST from 15 to 14 percent on April 1, 2025, so make sure older invoices and templates use the current rate.

As with other HST provinces, you charge one harmonized line rather than separate federal and provincial taxes, and the place-of-supply rules determine which province's rate applies to a given sale.
