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.

Where M9N Sits — and What That Changes at the Till

The centroid of M9N falls roughly 10 km northwest of Toronto, and the code shares its delivery city with 42 other postal areas. Its closest postal neighbours are M9P (Toronto (Etobicoke)) about 1 km off and M6L (Toronto (North York)) about 3 km off.

The nearest ground where the rate changes is about 320 km away — J0X in Quebec, at 14.975%. That distance is the useful part: nothing bought or delivered in M9N 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.

M9N is dense urban ground — a single neighbourhood inside one postal area — and density changes the taxable mix rather than the rate. Prepared food, personal services and in-person retail dominate what is rung through Toronto codes like this one, all of it at 13%, while the zero-rated grocery basics that anchor a suburban shop are a smaller share of the total than the province-wide averages suggest.

The 13% above is set for the whole of Ontario and does not move between postal codes — M9N pays exactly what every other Ontario code pays. Overnight accommodation is where Toronto parts company with them. The city levies a 6% Municipal Accommodation Tax on top of HST, so a $200 room night inside M9N carries $12.00 that the identical room would not carry in an Ontario municipality that never adopted one. The rate came down from 8.5% on 1 August 2026, the temporary increase having lapsed. Hotels and short-term rentals are charged at the same rate.

Everything above is particular to M9N; 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 M9N's page, where the calculator above is already locked to 13%.

Selling into M9N: What You Need to Register For

Ontario 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 Ontario sales tax guide — they are province-wide rules, identical for every postal code here, so this page links them rather than repeating them.

  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 Ontario and is set out once on the Ontario sales tax guide and in the Ontario GST/HST calculator.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the most common questions users ask.

What areas does postal code M9N cover?

The Forward Sortation Area M9N covers Weston in the York, Toronto region of Ontario in a predominantly urban setting.

What is the sales tax rate for FSA M9N in Ontario?

The combined sales tax rate for postal code FSA M9N in the York area of 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 M9N)?

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 M9N — urban, suburban or rural?

M9N is a predominantly urban code, within the York, Toronto region. Retail density is high, which means a large share of taxable transactions here are in-person, prepared food, and services rather than shipped goods.

Do local taxes in M9N 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 Toronto 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 M9N map to a sales tax rate?

The Forward Sortation Area (FSA) is the first three characters of a Canadian postal code. M9N falls within the range assigned to Ontario, specifically the York 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 M9N, 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.
