You should report all amounts in Canadian currency, unless the transaction meets the requirements explained in Foreign currency reporting.

For Canadian funds, leave this area blank.

Enter the applicable three-character alphabetic or numeric currency code using International Standard ISO 4217. If possible, use the alphabetic codes, as follows:

USD – United States, dollar
JPY – Japan, yen
HKD – Hong Kong, dollar
AUD– Australia, dollar
NZD – New Zealand, dollar
DKK – Denmark, krone
GBP – United Kingdom, pound
EUR – European Union, euro
OTH – Other

When you report amounts in foreign currency, keep the following rules in mind:

• print the name of the foreign currency on the T5008 slips (for example, U.S. DOLLARS) beside the Identification of securities text above the white box of Box 17 – Identification of securities for the recipient's benefit
• if you file your T5008 information return on paper and leave box 13 blank, we will process the amounts on the T5008 slips as Canadian dollars
• when completing the summary, you only have to enter one amount for total proceeds of disposition, whether or not you complete the T5008 slips in different currencies
