The tax rules you can choose from are:

  • No taxes
  • QST and GST
  • QST and GST to participants with a billing address in the province of Quebec
  • QST GST for participants from Quebec, GST only to those in Canada but outside of Quebec and no taxes for participants with a billing address outside of Canada
  • QST GST for participants from Quebec, GST to all others
  • 5% GST
  • 13% HST
  • 15% HST

Select if you want taxes to be included or added to the cost

If you have a tax rule that varies based on the billing address, but you want everyone to pay the same final cost, chose to include Taxes. This will dynamically modulate the sub-total to make sure that all participants pay the same final amount while respecting the appropriate tax rule.

Otherwise choose Add taxes to the cost.
