Employee Provincial Income Tax

Canada’s individual provinces and territories charge their own income taxes to residents and workers. These rates change periodically and vary widely from one province to another. Remote Canada legal entity is based in the province of British Columbia and income tax withholding is based on this province's rates. For employees residing outside of this province, province-specific adjustments to the tax withholding amount will be needed. For updated information regarding tax rates in specific provinces, view Canada’s official tax website.
