About Ontario Sales Tax
Ontario has a 13% combined sales tax rate, consisting of the 5% federal GST and 8% provincial HST.
Ontario 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 K0B Covers
K0B covers eastern Prescott and Russell counties near the Quebec border, including Vankleek Hill, L'Orignal and Alfred. It is a bilingual dairy-farming region of Eastern Ontario.

Where K0B Sits — and What That Changes at the Till
K0B sits about 55 km north of Cornwall, the nearest centre of any size, and is the only postal area our data records for Vankleek Hill. Its closest postal neighbours are K6A (Hawkesbury) about 10 km off and K0C (Alexandria) about 25 km off. The zero in K0B is Canada Post's marker for a rural service area — every code in the K0 block is rural Ontario — which is why one prefix has to cover 5 separate settlements here rather than a few city blocks.
The nearest postal area we hold in another province is J0V (Montebello / Papineauville, Quebec), about 25 km from K0B. A $500 order delivered into K0B carries $65.00 in HST; the same order delivered into J0V carries $74.88 in GST + QST — $9.88 apart on one invoice. Because Canadian sales tax follows the customer, a seller in Vankleek Hill shipping to both charges 13% on the first and 14.975% on the second, from the same warehouse on the same day.
5 named communities share this one code — Vankleek Hill and L'Orignal among them — which is the ordinary shape of rural Ontario: 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 K0B takes 13% however far the seller sits from Vankleek Hill.
Everything above is particular to K0B; the rules that are not — registration thresholds, filing frequency, input tax credit recovery, point-of-sale rebates — are set for the whole of Ontario, and they live on the Ontario sales tax guide rather than being restated on K0B's page, where the calculator above is already locked to 13%.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the most common questions users ask.
What areas does postal code K0B cover?
The Forward Sortation Area K0B covers Vankleek Hill, L'Orignal, Alfred, Dalkeith and Glen Robertson in the Prescott and Russell (Eastern Ontario) region of Ontario in a predominantly rural setting.
What is the sales tax rate for FSA K0B in Ontario?
The combined sales tax rate for postal code FSA K0B in Ontario is 13%. This is a Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) that combines the 5% federal GST with an 8% provincial component into a single rate administered by the Canada Revenue Agency.
How do I calculate tax for a purchase in Ontario (FSA K0B)?
To calculate the total price including sales tax for any purchase in Ontario, multiply the purchase price by 1.13. For example, a $100.00 purchase costs $113.00 total, with $13.00 in sales tax.
For the reverse calculation, divide the total price by 1.13 to find the pre-tax amount. Run the example above backwards and $113.00 paid in Ontario resolves to $100.00 before tax and $13.00 of HST.
Does Ontario use HST or separate GST and PST?
Ontario uses a Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) system. The HST combines the 5% federal GST with the 8% provincial component into a single rate of 13%. Businesses file one return with the CRA.
What kind of area is K0B — urban, suburban or rural?
K0B is a predominantly rural code, within the Prescott and Russell (Eastern Ontario) 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 K0B change what I pay?
Not the sales tax itself — Ontario levies 13% 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 Vankleek Hill can total more than 13% while a retail receipt from the same street does not. Check the municipality's own schedule for those, and see the Ontario sales tax guide for the province-wide rules.
How does FSA K0B map to a sales tax rate?
The Forward Sortation Area (FSA) is the first three characters of a Canadian postal code. K0B falls within the range assigned to Ontario. 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 K0B, you know it is an Ontario sale and you charge 13%. That matters most for shipped orders, where the buyer's postal code — not your own — decides the rate.
