The Goods and Services Tax (GST) and the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) are taxes charged on goods and services in Canada. These taxes are reimbursable to non-resident businesses spending more than $200 (before taxes) for eligible goods and short-term accommodations during an employee's stay in Canada.
These taxes must be reimbursed by the college when travel to Canada is in the conduct of college business.
The traveler must attach original receipts for lodging and eligible goods when the Travel and Conference Expense Report is submitted to the Controller's Office. The Controller's Office, not the traveler, will apply for the GST/HST tax reimbursement.
