Do you offer tax exemptions?

BC Resellers

We offer PST exemptions to eligible resellers located in British Columbia.

If you have a T-shirt.ca account and a valid BC PST number, you can register your PST number online. Once your account has been updated, eligible purchases will be charged GST only.

If you purchase products exclusively for resale but do not have a PST number, you may be eligible to complete a Certificate of Exemption.

Important: Use the same email address on the form that is associated with your T-shirt.ca account. Not every purchaser without a PST number is eligible to use a Certificate of Exemption.

First Nations Tax Exemptions

Eligible purchases may qualify for tax relief when an order is delivered to a reserve by T-shirt.ca or our delivery provider, such as a courier or postal service. Applicable exemptions depend on the purchaser, delivery location, and provincial requirements.

How to Request an Exemption

  1. Create or sign in to your T-shirt.ca account.
  2. Provide clear images of the front and back of your valid Certificate of Indian Status card.
  3. Provide the complete reserve shipping address.

For more information, review the Canada Revenue Agency’s GST/HST guidance for First Nations peoples.

BC, AB, SK, MB, NB, NS, PEI, and NL

If an eligible order is delivered to a reserve and a valid Certificate of Indian Status is provided, the purchase may qualify for applicable sales-tax relief.

Quebec

If an eligible order is delivered to a reserve and a valid Certificate of Indian Status is provided, the purchase may qualify for GST and QST relief.

Ontario

Ontario offers eligible First Nations purchasers a rebate of the 8% provincial portion of the HST on qualifying off-reserve purchases.

T-shirt.ca is currently unable to apply this separate Ontario rebate directly to online purchases. Eligible purchasers may submit a rebate claim to the Ontario Ministry of Finance after completing their purchase.

Children’s Clothing

Eligible children’s clothing purchased in British Columbia, Ontario, and Nova Scotia automatically receives the applicable provincial tax exemption or point-of-sale rebate. Only the federal GST portion is charged on qualifying items.

Eligibility depends on the garment’s sizing and product type.
