Invoice Without GST/HST for Canada

Not every business in Canada charges GST/HST. If you are a freelancer or small business below the registration threshold, or you are simply not registered, you need a clean invoice with no tax lines at all. This template does exactly that. Canadian sales tax follows the province of supply: HST in Ontario and the Atlantic provinces, GST alone in Alberta and the territories, and GST plus PST or QST elsewhere.

Add your details, your client and what you sold; the total, any discount, shipping and the amount in words are calculated for you in Canadian Dollar (CAD), with dates in the local format (2026-10-26). You can print a short note such as "GST/HST not charged: small supplier, not registered." so your client knows why no GST/HST is shown.

If you register later, switch "Add taxes" on and the same invoice becomes a invoice, keeping everything you typed. Your data stays in this browser, nothing is uploaded, and the PDF is created on your device.

Frequently asked questions

When can I issue an invoice without GST/HST?

When you are not registered for GST/HST, usually because your turnover is below the registration threshold, or the sale is outside its scope. Check the current threshold with your tax authority.

What should I write instead of tax?

Many businesses add a short line such as "GST/HST not charged: small supplier, not registered." The generator can print it for you.

Can I switch to a tax invoice later?

Yes. Turn "Add taxes" on and the same invoice becomes a tax invoice. Item rates are remembered, and no typing is lost.

Is it really free?

Yes. No sign-up, no watermark, and nothing is uploaded: the PDF is made on your device.
