Country-aware checks
- Tax terminology: GST/HST, PST, QST
- Business ID label: Business Number (BN) / GST/HST Number
- For GST/HST supporting documents of C$100 or more, include the supplier's GST/HST registration number. The CRA applies tiered supporting-document requirements by total sale value; do not treat this as an unconditional requirement for every Canadian invoice.
- For a GST/HST registrant purchaser's ITC support, the supplier or trading name, invoice date (or tax-paid/payable date when no invoice is issued), and total paid or payable are required at every CRA value tier.
- For GST/HST supporting documents totalling C$500 or more, the CRA table also calls for the buyer's name, a brief description of the property or services, and payment terms. Lower tiers have fewer particulars.
- GST/HST sales and purchase invoices and related business records are usually kept for six years from the end of the year to which they relate; CRA can require longer retention, and earlier destruction requires written permission.
