TrueNorth APITax rules for 41 product categories
A kid’s onesie, a paperback, a pizza slice, and a vape are all taxed differently in Canada. TrueNorth knows the difference, in every province. Now 41 categories, from groceries to aircraft, boats, hotel stays, tobacco, fuel, and legal services.
Describe it, we classify it
Send a product description like “organic cotton baby onesie”. TrueNorth returns the tax category with a confidence score. Low-confidence guesses safely fall back to fully-taxable, never under-collected.
Provincial quirks included
BC’s 10% liquor PST and 20% vapour PST, Manitoba’s $150 children’s-clothing cap, Ontario’s $4 prepared-food rebate, Quebec’s non-compounded QST, Nova Scotia’s 14% HST, legal services taxed in BC and SK, and the federal luxury tax on vehicles over $100,000.
Zero-rating done right
Basic groceries, prescription drugs and feminine hygiene at 0% Canada-wide. Medical devices zero-rated federally. Private used-vehicle sales taxed at registration instead of GST/HST.
