I'm well-versed in tax policies and regulations, having studied and advised on these matters extensively. The intricate tax landscape across various regions, such as Canada and the United States, involves a multitude of tax rates and systems. In Canada, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) and Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) rates differ across provinces, with some provinces following a combined HST rate and others solely applying the GST. For instance:
- Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Quebec, Saskatchewan, and Yukon apply the GST at a rate of 5%.
- New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Prince Edward Island implement an HST ranging from 13% to 15%.
Meanwhile, in the United States, sales tax rates vary by state. Some states charge sales tax on shipped items based on the shipping address. A few specifics include:
- Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming levy sales taxes.
However, shipments to APO/FPO military addresses are exempt from these sales taxes. Additionally, for international shipments from vendors not located in the buyer's country, any duties or taxes fall under the responsibility of the customer.
It's crucial to note that these taxes aren't factored into the bidding price and are typically applied post-acceptance of the winning bid when the method of payment is charged. Shipments generally occur within 3-5 business days following payment receipt.
