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 E4T Sits — and What That Changes at the Till

E4T sits about 50 km north of Moncton, the nearest centre of any size, and is the only postal area our data records for Rexton. Its closest postal neighbours are E4W (Richibucto) about 15 km off and E4S (Bouctouche) about 15 km off.

The nearest postal area we hold in another province is C0B (Tignish / Alberton, Prince Edward Island), about 70 km from E4T. New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island happen to land on the same 15%, so crossing that line changes the paperwork rather than the number: a delivery into C0B is a Prince Edward Island supply and is reported as one, even though the customer pays exactly what they would have paid in E4T.

4 named communities share this one code — Bass River and Rexton among them — which is the ordinary shape of rural New Brunswick: 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 E4T takes 15% however far the seller sits from Rexton.

Everything above is particular to E4T; 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 E4T's page, where the calculator above is already locked to 15%.

Selling into E4T: 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 E4T 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 E4T cover?

The Forward Sortation Area E4T covers Bass River, Rexton, Richibucto Village and Five Rivers in the Kent County region of New Brunswick in a predominantly rural setting. Retail and civic landmarks inside the code include Richibucto River — the places where purchases in E4T actually happen.

What is the sales tax rate for FSA E4T in New Brunswick?

The combined sales tax rate for postal code FSA E4T in the Saint-Paul 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 E4T)?

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 E4T — urban, suburban or rural?

E4T is a predominantly rural code, within the Kent County 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 E4T 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 Rexton 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 E4T map to a sales tax rate?

The Forward Sortation Area (FSA) is the first three characters of a Canadian postal code. E4T falls within the range assigned to New Brunswick, specifically the Saint-Paul 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 E4T, 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.
