Corporate tax help for importers and exporters in Burlington

Import and export books have to agree with customs, not just the bank. Listed accountants on our platform track duties, import GST and inventory, then file the corporate return and HST from those records.

From Aldershot and Appleby to Alton Village and downtown, we support local shops, trades, consultants and retirees with filing, planning and year-round advice.

GST paid at the border is often recoverable, but only if the import documents match the books. Currency gains and landed cost are easy to leave out.

The accountants listed here reconcile commercial invoices, brokerage statements and sales so margin and tax are based on the full landed cost.

What is handled for importers and exporters in Burlington

  1. Corporate tax filing (T2)

    The trading company's return is prepared from inventory and customs records and filed on time.

  2. Import GST

    GST paid to the CBSA or your broker is recorded and claimed as an input tax credit when it qualifies.

  3. Landed cost

    Duty, freight and brokerage are added to inventory cost so margins are not overstated.

  4. HST on sales

    Domestic sales and zero-rated exports are coded separately so the HST return matches what you shipped.

  5. Currency

    Foreign-currency purchases and sales are converted and exchange differences are booked.

  6. Documents

    Commercial invoices and B3-style import records are kept with the books in case the CRA or CBSA asks.

Who this helps in Burlington

  • Importers bringing goods into Canada
  • Exporters selling outside Canada
  • Wholesalers with overseas suppliers
  • Trading companies with customs brokers

Corporate tax for import and export in Burlington: FAQ

Quick answers to what people ask us most.

Do you offer corporate tax for import and export in Burlington?

Yes. We provide corporate tax for import and export to individuals and businesses in Burlington and Halton Region. You can meet with us by phone or video and share documents securely online. Call (647) 527-4970 to get started.

Can I claim back the GST I pay on imports?

Registrants can generally claim import GST as an input tax credit when the goods are for commercial use and the import documents support it. Duties are part of inventory cost, not a tax credit.

Are exports taxable for HST?

Many goods exported from Canada are zero-rated, which means you charge no HST but can still claim input tax credits. The paperwork has to show the goods left Canada.

What is landed cost?

It is the full cost of getting goods into your warehouse: the supplier invoice, freight, duty and brokerage. That total is what your inventory should carry.

Do you work with customs brokers' statements?

Yes. Listed bookkeepers tie broker statements to supplier bills and bank payments each month.
