Tax on Insurance Premiums
If you are subject to the tax on insurance premiums, you may have related obligations to us. For example, you may have to:
- collect the tax on insurance premiums if you sell an insurance premium
- remit the tax on insurance premiums if the tax was not collected when the premium was paid
If you are required to collect or remit the tax on insurance premiums, the rate of the tax is 9%.
GST and QST do not apply to insurance premiums.
