If you are a driver related to a transportation system operator under agreement, such as Uber, and you carry on or intend to carry on commercial activities in addition to your taxi business, you must meet your obligations respecting the GST and QST.

If you registered for the GST and QST before becoming a driver related to a transportation system operator under agreement, you do not have to register again. Simply use the GST and QST registration numbers already assigned to you. You must, however, call us to update your file and register your new business activity code. 

If you are not registered for the GST and QST, you must register before making your first trip.

You can use the Register for the GST/HST and QST – Drivers for a Transportation System Operator Under Agreement online service to register in a few simple steps. You must first accept the conditions for use. These conditions may not be suited to your other business activities.

For information on other ways to register, see How to Register for the GST and QST.

Under the agreements with us, transportation system operators (such as Uber) must collect the GST and QST on services you provide through their platform and remit the taxes on your behalf at the rates established in the agreements.

However, in some situations, you may have to make an adjustment and remit additional amounts respecting these services when filing your tax return.
