On behalf of the Government of Prince Edward Island, the Canada Revenue Agency administers the Prince Edward Island sales tax credit, which is related to the goods and services tax/harmonized sales tax (GST/HST) credit.

Prince Edward Island sales tax credit

This credit is a tax-free amount paid to help offset the increase in the sales tax for households with low and modest incomes.

The program provides an annual credit of $110 for an individual plus, if applicable, $55 for a spouse, common‑law partner or an eligible dependant. There is also a supplement of 0.5% of adjusted family net income over $30,000, up to a maximum of $55. The total of the above is reduced by 2% of adjusted family net income over $50,000.

The Prince Edward Island sales tax credit is fully funded by the province of Prince Edward Island.

This amount is combined with the quarterly payments of the federal GST/HST credit.
