Frequently asked
What is the GST rate in Alberta?
Alberta charges 5% GST with no provincial sales tax, so 5% total — the lowest in Canada.
How do I calculate GST backwards from a total?
Switch to “Remove tax”. The tool divides the total by 1 plus the rate to recover the pre-tax amount, which is what the CRA expects on a reverse calculation.
Are these rates current?
They reflect the rates in effect for 2026. Always confirm against the CRA before filing.
