Tax Exempt Status
Under GST rules, only individuals with Indian Status Cards who have products shipped to an address on an Indian Reserve in Canada can be considered tax exempt in Canada.
USANA does not tax shipments made to the Reserve if the following requirements are met:
-
USANA has received a copy of the Indian Status Card (front and back)
-
Shipments are delivered to the Reserve
If USANA has not received a copy of the Indian Status Card or if the shipment is sent to an address not located on the Reserve, the shipment will be taxed.
HST follows the same GST rules.
USANA can allow for PST exempt status if acceptable by provincial rules with a letter or exemption certification with PST number and information.
It can take up to 10 business days for exemption completion, once a copy of the Indian Status Card, PST letter, or exemption certificate is received.
