Alberta tax at a glance

Why Alberta is a low-tax province for business

Alberta is the only province with no provincial sales tax — you charge just the 5% federal GST, which makes sales-tax compliance simpler than almost anywhere else in Canada.

Alberta also has the lowest general corporate rate in the country at 23% combined (15% federal + 8% Alberta), and a small-business rate of 11% combined. For a growing Alberta corporation, that low general rate matters as soon as you pass the small-business limit.

Common questions

Alberta accounting FAQ

Does Alberta have PST?+
No. Alberta is the only province with no provincial sales tax — you charge only the 5% federal GST. That makes sales-tax compliance simpler than in PST or HST provinces.
What is the corporate tax rate in Alberta?+
The small-business rate is about 11% combined (9% federal + 2% Alberta) up to $500,000. The general rate is 23% combined — the lowest in Canada — which benefits corporations earning above the small-business limit.
Can a CPA outside Alberta file my Alberta taxes?+
Yes. Corporate and personal tax are federal, and Alberta administers its own corporate tax return which we prepare as part of the engagement. We serve Alberta clients entirely online.
How do we work together if you are not in Alberta?+
Everything runs online with video calls and CRA e-filing. You get the same dedicated CPA all year — most Alberta clients find it faster than a local office.
Do you help with incorporation in Alberta?+
Yes — we advise whether incorporating saves you tax given Alberta’s low rates, and coordinate the corporate and personal side once you do.

One dayWe reply to every enquiry within one business day — usually the same day.
