Sales Tax for T0E — Jasper

What Postal Code T0E Covers

T0E covers west-central Alberta along the Yellowhead corridor, including the mountain resort town of Jasper plus Onoway and Mayerthorpe west of Edmonton. Jasper, the townsite inside Jasper National Park, anchors the largest dark-sky preserve in the Rockies and was substantially rebuilt after the 2024 wildfire that destroyed a third of its buildings. Alberta Beach on Lac Ste. Anne adjoins the site of the annual Lac Ste. Anne pilgrimage, the largest Indigenous Catholic gathering in North America.

Where T0E Sits — and What That Changes at the Till

T0E sits about 130 km west of Edmonton, the nearest centre of any size, and is the only postal area our data records for Jasper. Its closest postal neighbours are T7A (Drayton Valley) about 45 km off and T7E (Edson) about 60 km off. The zero in T0E is Canada Post's marker for a rural service area — every code in the T0 block is rural Alberta — which is why one prefix has to cover 5 separate settlements here rather than a few city blocks.

The nearest ground where the rate changes is about 290 km away — V0A in British Columbia, at 12%. That distance is the useful part: nothing bought or delivered in T0E 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.

5 named communities share this one code — Jasper and Onoway among them — which is the ordinary shape of rural Alberta: 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 T0E takes 5% however far the seller sits from Jasper. Around Jasper National Park, demand is seasonal, and seasonal demand is where the small-supplier threshold bites hardest: an operator who only trades in summer can cross $30,000 inside a single quarter and owes GST from the sale that took them over it, not from the following year.

The 5% above is set for the whole of Alberta and does not move between postal codes — T0E pays exactly what every other Alberta code pays. The bill that does move is an overnight one. Alberta's 6% tourism levy applies on top of GST, and has done at that rate since 1 April 2026, so a $200 room night inside T0E carries $12.00 of it. It was 4% before that. The base is wider than the room rate: booking, service and administration fees, pet charges, cleaning and even smoking-in-a-non-smoking-room penalties are inside it. It runs out at 28 nights: once the same guest has stayed that long continuously the booking stops being transient accommodation, and the levy stops with it.

Everything above is particular to T0E; the rules that are not — registration thresholds, filing frequency, input tax credit recovery, point-of-sale rebates — are set for the whole of Alberta, and they live on the Alberta sales tax guide rather than being restated on T0E's page, where the calculator above is already locked to 5%.

Selling into T0E: What You Need to Register For

Alberta runs a GST Only system administered by Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), with a registration threshold of $30,000 (federal GST). Filing frequency, input tax credit recovery, point-of-sale rebates and the full registration walkthrough are set out on the Alberta 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 T0E is an Alberta sale, so charge 5% GST — your own address does not enter into it.
2. Show it the way Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) expects. The GST amount as its own line item.

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