Registration – Specific Tax on Alcoholic Beverages

If you produce, import or sell (retail or wholesale) alcoholic beverages, you are generally required to register for the GST and the QST.

Important

Regardless of the amount of your annual taxable supplies, you must register for the QST before you start selling alcoholic beverages. You must then collect the QST and the specific tax on alcoholic beverages.

If you are a small supplier, you do not have to register for the GST.

End of note

If you are already registered for the GST or QST and you start producing or selling alcoholic beverages, you must modify your registration accordingly.

You can register for the GST and QST by:

  • using either: 
    • the Register a New Business service (to register for consumption taxes, source deductions and corporation income tax), or

  • filing form LM-1-V, Application for Registration.
