Trip Canada Tax Return?


Are visitors still able to get the portion of their tax back after visiting Canada? I've heard that, Canada stopped giving back the tax to out of country visitors.

For some things you still can. The first link is to the forms. The second is where I got this information.

Due to changes to the law that took effect on April 1, 2007, a goods and services tax/harmonized sales tax (GST/HST) refund is no longer available on:

personal goods purchased in Canada after March 31, 2007, by non-resident visitors who take the goods home; and
short-term accommodation in Canada (including camping accommodation), unless the accommodation:
was part of a continuous accommodation at the same facility in Canada that started before April 1, 2007; or
was purchased under a written agreement entered into before September 25, 2006, under which the first night of continuous accommodation at the same facility in Canada is before April 1, 2009.
A refund is still available for the GST/HST paid on eligible tour packages. Use Form GST176, Application for Visitor Tax Refund, included in this pamphlet, to claim the refund if:

the first night of accommodation in Canada included in the package is before April 1, 2007; or
you purchased the tour package under a written agreement entered into before September 25, 2006, and the first night of accommodation in Canada included in the package is before April 1, 2009 Source(s): http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/e/pbg/gf/gst176...
