  • a residential lease for a period of one month or longer;
  • a residence or dwelling that is not new at the time of sale;
  • most childcare services;
  • most healthcare and dental services;
  • certain educational services;
  • certain services provided by public sector bodies such as governments, charities, hospitals and universities;
  • most financial services (under the GST system only).

Exempt sales do not entitle you ITCs or ITRs.
