Goods and services tax-free Government of Alberta entities

Description

Following is the list of Alberta government entities and departments not required to pay Goods and Services Tax (GST) on purchases of taxable supplies and services. These entities are part of the Alberta government for GST purposes and therefore immune from payment of GST as set out in section 125 of the Constitution Act of Canada. These entities are also not required to pay the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) on their purchases in HST-participating provinces. The list is maintained by Alberta Tax and Revenue Administration.
