About Newfoundland and Labrador Sales Tax
Newfoundland and Labrador has a 15% combined sales tax rate, consisting of the 5% federal GST and 10% provincial HST.
Newfoundland and Labrador uses the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) system. The HST combines the 5% federal GST and the provincial portion into a single streamlined rate administered entirely by the Canada Revenue Agency. Businesses file one return, claim one set of input tax credits (ITCs), and remit to one authority — significantly simplifying compliance compared to dual-tax provinces.
What Postal Code A0H Covers
A0H covers central Newfoundland in the Exploits River valley, including the towns of Bishop's Falls and Botwood and the former mining town of Buchans. The region grew around the pulp-and-paper and mining industries of the interior.

Where A0H Sits — and What That Changes at the Till
A0H sits about 10 km east of Grand Falls-Windsor, the nearest centre of any size, and is the only postal area our data records for Bishop's Falls / Botwood area. Its closest postal neighbours are A2B (Grand Falls-Windsor) about 10 km off and A2A (Grand Falls-Windsor) about 10 km off. The zero in A0H is Canada Post's marker for a rural service area — every code in the A0 block is rural Newfoundland and Labrador — which is why one prefix has to cover 6 separate settlements here rather than a few city blocks.
6 named communities share this one code — Bishop's Falls and Botwood among them — which is the ordinary shape of rural Newfoundland and Labrador: the postal geography is wide, the retail geography is narrow. General merchandise is bought in one or two service centres or ordered in, and an order shipped into A0H takes 15% however far the seller sits from Bishop's Falls / Botwood area.
Everything above is particular to A0H; the rules that are not — registration thresholds, filing frequency, input tax credit recovery, point-of-sale rebates — are set for the whole of Newfoundland and Labrador, and they live on the Newfoundland and Labrador sales tax guide rather than being restated on A0H's page, where the calculator above is already locked to 15%.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the most common questions users ask.
What areas does postal code A0H cover?
The Forward Sortation Area A0H covers Bishop's Falls, Botwood, Buchans, Point Leamington, Northern Arm and Peterview in the Central Newfoundland (Exploits Valley) region of Newfoundland and Labrador in a predominantly rural setting.
What is the sales tax rate for FSA A0H in Newfoundland and Labrador?
The combined sales tax rate for postal code FSA A0H in Newfoundland and Labrador is 15%. This is a Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) that combines the 5% federal GST with a 10% provincial component into a single rate administered by the Canada Revenue Agency.
How do I calculate tax for a purchase in Newfoundland and Labrador (FSA A0H)?
To calculate the total price including sales tax for any purchase in Newfoundland and Labrador, multiply the purchase price by 1.15. For example, a $100.00 purchase costs $115.00 total, with $15.00 in sales tax.
For the reverse calculation, divide the total price by 1.15 to find the pre-tax amount. Run the example above backwards and $115.00 paid in Newfoundland and Labrador resolves to $100.00 before tax and $15.00 of HST.
Does Newfoundland and Labrador use HST or separate GST and PST?
Newfoundland and Labrador uses a Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) system. The HST combines the 5% federal GST with the 10% provincial component into a single rate of 15%. Businesses file one return with the CRA.
What kind of area is A0H — urban, suburban or rural?
A0H is a predominantly rural code, within the Central Newfoundland (Exploits Valley) region. Retail is concentrated in a few centres, so residents frequently buy online or drive to a larger town — both of which are still taxed at the same provincial rate, but delivery-based purchases follow the destination rule to this postal code.
Do local taxes in A0H change what I pay?
Not the sales tax itself — Newfoundland and Labrador levies 15% province-wide and there is no municipal sales tax in Canada. What can differ by municipality are the separate levies that sit outside sales tax: accommodation and lodging taxes on short-term stays, and in some provinces local levies on prepared food or alcohol.
So a hotel folio or restaurant bill from Bishop's Falls / Botwood area can total more than 15% while a retail receipt from the same street does not. Check the municipality's own schedule for those, and see the Newfoundland and Labrador sales tax guide for the province-wide rules.
How does FSA A0H map to a sales tax rate?
The Forward Sortation Area (FSA) is the first three characters of a Canadian postal code. A0H falls within the range assigned to Newfoundland and Labrador. Canada sets sales tax provincially rather than municipally, so the FSA's job here is to place the buyer: once you know a delivery address sits in A0H, you know it is a Newfoundland and Labrador sale and you charge 15%. That matters most for shipped orders, where the buyer's postal code — not your own — decides the rate.
