Nova Scotia Sales Tax by Postal Code — All 77 FSAs
Every Nova Scotia forward sortation area charges 14% HST. Pick your FSA below for the local page: coverage area, worked examples, and a rate-locked calculator.
Nova Scotia has 77 forward sortation areas in the B postal district, with the densest coverage in Halifax (9), Sydney (6), Dartmouth (6). The sales tax rate is set provincially, so every FSA below shares the same 14% HST rate — the per-FSA pages exist to answer what each code actually covers and what that rate does to real receipts there. For the province-wide rules, see the Nova Scotia sales tax guide.
