GST/HST invoice generator for registered Canadian service businesses.
Build a Canadian-dollar invoice after confirming registration, taxability, place of supply, and one ordinary service rate. Calculate 5% GST, 13%, 14%, or 15% HST, or separate Québec GST and QST, then copy, download CSV, print, or save as PDF without uploading customer details.
Confirm before invoicing
Four checks keep the document separate from the tax decision.
The generator calculates the selected path; it deliberately does not infer registration, taxability, place of supply, or provincial obligations from an address.
Confirm the accounts
Confirm that the supplier is registered and that the GST/HST—and QST account when applicable—is active for the invoice date.
Confirm the supply
Classify the supply and determine its place of supply. Confirm the one GST/HST or Québec GST/QST path that applies to every line.
Build the invoice
Enter the supplier, customer, invoice dates, line descriptions, quantities, prices, registration numbers, and payment terms in this browser.
Review and retain
Review the current agency information band and number formats, export the invoice, and retain it with the supporting rate and status evidence.
Current single-rate paths
Choose a confirmed service rate—not a province guess.
The table is a navigation aid for ordinary positive-rate services. CRA says the actual rate depends on the type, place, and recipient of the supply. Provincial sales taxes and special rules remain outside the calculation.
| Confirmed path | Ordinary location group | Generator tax lines |
|---|---|---|
| 5% GST | Non-participating province or territory | GST 5% · PST/RST separate |
| 13% HST | Ontario | HST 13% |
| 14% HST | Nova Scotia from April 1, 2025 | HST 14% |
| 15% HST | New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, or PEI | HST 15% |
| Québec | Confirmed Québec GST/QST path | GST 5% + QST 9.975% |
Ontario · 13% HST
C$1,000 + C$130 HST = C$1,130 total.
Nova Scotia · 14% HST
C$1,000 + C$140 HST = C$1,140 total.
Québec · GST and QST
C$1,000 + C$50 GST + C$99.75 QST = C$1,149.75 total. QST is not compounded on GST.

Six boundaries the invoice generator does not hide.
Does the generator choose the GST/HST rate from an address?
No. The seller must confirm taxability and place of supply first. Use the linked place-of-supply screener for an ordinary service, then confirm uncertain facts with CRA or an adviser.
Does the 5% GST path calculate PST or RST?
No. British Columbia, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan can have separate provincial sales-tax rules. The generator calculates only the selected federal path or the dedicated Québec GST/QST path.
Can I use it for zero-rated, exempt, mixed, or special supplies?
Not as a one-click conclusion. The form requires one ordinary positive tax path for every line. Separate or review supplies with different statuses, rates, real-property rules, or special-sector rules.
Does a recognized registration-number format prove an active account?
No. Format recognition only prevents an obvious typing mismatch. Verify status in the appropriate official registry and keep the evidence reference outside the invoice.
Is the exported invoice automatically ‘CRA-compliant’?
No universal format is certified by this tool. It includes a fuller practical field set and shows the current agency information band, but contracts, procurement systems, legislation, and special sectors can require more.
Does Thirty North save invoice or customer data?
No. The builder runs in the browser, uses no account, and does not send entered invoice fields to Thirty North analytics. Closing or refreshing the tab clears the unsaved form.
