About New Brunswick Sales Tax

New Brunswick has a 15% combined sales tax rate, consisting of the 5% federal GST and 10% provincial HST.

New Brunswick 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.

Where E3G Sits — and What That Changes at the Till

The centroid of E3G falls roughly 5 km northeast of Fredericton, and the code shares its delivery city with 4 other postal areas. Its closest postal neighbours are E3A (Fredericton) about 3 km off and E3B (Fredericton) about 5 km off.

The nearest ground where the rate changes is about 170 km away — B0V in Nova Scotia, at 14%. That distance is the useful part: nothing bought or delivered in E3G is a borderline case, so the only rate question worth asking here is whether the sale is taxable at all, not which province's number applies to it.

E3G is suburban ground serving about 12,000 across 3 communities — the settlement pattern where delivered goods matter most. A parcel addressed into E3G carries New Brunswick's 15% even when the seller is registered in Alberta and charges 5% to every customer at home.

The 15% above is set for the whole of New Brunswick and does not move between postal codes — E3G pays exactly what every other New Brunswick code pays. Overnight accommodation is where Fredericton parts company with them. The city levies a 3.5% Tourism Accommodation Levy on top of HST, so a $200 room night inside E3G carries $7.00 that the identical room would not carry in a New Brunswick municipality that never adopted one. The by-law reaches accommodation properties of six rooms or more, so the smallest operators sit outside it entirely.

Everything above is particular to E3G; the rules that are not — registration thresholds, filing frequency, input tax credit recovery, point-of-sale rebates — are set for the whole of New Brunswick, and they live on the New Brunswick sales tax guide rather than being restated on E3G's page, where the calculator above is already locked to 15%.

Selling into E3G: What You Need to Register For

New Brunswick runs a HST system administered by Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), with a registration threshold of $30,000 (HST). Filing frequency, input tax credit recovery, point-of-sale rebates and the full registration walkthrough are set out on the New Brunswick sales tax guide — they are province-wide rules, identical for every postal code here, so this page links them rather than repeating them.

  1. Charge the rate the address decides. A delivery into E3G is a New Brunswick sale, so charge 15% HST — your own address does not enter into it.
  2. Show it the way Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) expects. One HST line and the total tax amount on each invoice.

Everything else about selling here — thresholds, filing frequency, ITC recovery, point-of-sale rebates, and the full province-by-province sourcing rules — is identical for every postal code in New Brunswick and is set out once on the New Brunswick sales tax guide and in the New Brunswick GST/HST calculator.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the most common questions users ask.

What areas does postal code E3G cover?

The Forward Sortation Area E3G covers North Fredericton suburbs, Barkers Point and St. Marys in the Capital Region region of New Brunswick, serving about 12,000 in a predominantly suburban setting. Retail and civic landmarks inside the code include Nashwaak River — the places where purchases in E3G actually happen.

What is the sales tax rate for FSA E3G in New Brunswick?

The combined sales tax rate for postal code FSA E3G in the Fredericton area of New Brunswick 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 New Brunswick (FSA E3G)?

To calculate the total price including sales tax for any purchase in New Brunswick, 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 New Brunswick resolves to $100.00 before tax and $15.00 of HST.

Does New Brunswick use HST or separate GST and PST?

New Brunswick 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 E3G — urban, suburban or rural?

E3G is a predominantly suburban code serving about 12,000, within the Capital Region region. That mix means both in-store and delivered purchases are common, and delivered orders take the rate for this postal code rather than the seller's.

Do local taxes in E3G change what I pay?

Not the sales tax itself — New Brunswick 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 Fredericton 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 New Brunswick sales tax guide for the province-wide rules.

How does FSA E3G map to a sales tax rate?

The Forward Sortation Area (FSA) is the first three characters of a Canadian postal code. E3G falls within the range assigned to New Brunswick, specifically the Fredericton area. 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 E3G, you know it is a New Brunswick sale and you charge 15%. That matters most for shipped orders, where the buyer's postal code — not your own — decides the rate.
