Understanding Saskatchewan's Sales Tax System

Saskatchewan uses a split system of federal GST (5%) and provincial PST (6%), resulting in a combined rate of 11% on most taxable purchases. Saskatchewan is one of only two remaining provinces (along with BC and Manitoba) that have not harmonized with the federal GST, maintaining a separately administered provincial sales tax. The Saskatchewan PST is administered by the Saskatchewan Ministry of Finance, while GST continues to be administered by the CRA.

Saskatchewan's 6% PST rate was increased from 5% to 6% in 2017, part of a budget response to lower oil and commodity prices. The province also significantly expanded the PST base in 2017, adding previously exempt categories including insurance premiums, construction services, and various other services. This expansion made Saskatchewan's PST one of the broadest in Canada, applying not just to tangible goods but to a wide range of services as well.

Why Reverse Tax Calculation Matters in Saskatchewan

Saskatchewan's 2017 PST expansion is particularly important for businesses to understand. Services that were PST-exempt before 2017 — including many professional services, insurance, and construction — became taxable. This means service-based businesses in Saskatchewan that previously only dealt with GST now have PST obligations as well.

For consumers and businesses, the 11% combined rate on taxable goods and services (including the expanded service base) makes accurate reverse calculation essential. A consultant billing for services in Saskatchewan must now charge PST in addition to GST on many of those services, and accurately determining the pre-tax amount from an 11% inclusive total is a routine accounting task.

Real-World Reverse Calculation Example

You hired a contractor for renovation work in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The total invoice was $22,200.00 including the 11% combined rate (5% GST + 6% PST, as construction services are now PST-taxable).

  • Combined rate: 5% GST + 6% PST = 11.00%
  • Convert: 11% ÷ 100 = 0.11
  • Add 1: 1 + 0.11 = 1.11
  • Divide: $22,200.00 ÷ 1.11 = $20,000.00 (pre-tax contract value)
  • GST: $20,000.00 × 5% = $1,000.00
  • PST: $20,000.00 × 6% = $1,200.00
  • ✓ Pre-tax contract: $20,000.00 | GST: $1,000.00 | PST: $1,200.00 | Total Tax: $2,200.00

Saskatchewan GST + PST Compliance & Filing

Saskatchewan businesses must register for GST with CRA and separately for PST with the Saskatchewan Ministry of Finance (eTaxSask portal). The GST threshold is $30,000 annual taxable supplies. Saskatchewan PST registration is required before making taxable sales. PST returns are filed with the Ministry of Finance monthly or quarterly. Note: Saskatchewan PST does not have an input tax credit system — PST paid is generally not recoverable by businesses.
