GST/HST and QST for Canadian businesses
Never leave a tax credit on the table.
Vigitaxe is being built to watch your books every day, claim every input tax credit you are owed, prepare your GST/HST return (and QST in Québec) and warn you before a deadline. Anything unusual is flagged for you to decide. You approve every return.

Sales tax gets done once a quarter, in a rush.
The rules are known and the math repeats. The problem is that nobody looks until the deadline.
Receipts pile up
In a shoebox, an inbox and three card statements. Nobody matches them until the return is due.
Credits slip away
A purchase recorded without its GST/HST is tax you paid and may never claim back.
The deadline sneaks up
A late return means penalties and interest, even when the business had the money.
Questions wait
Your bookkeeper answers on Monday. The supplier who forgot their tax number answers never.
It should run every day, not once a quarter.
Rules do the math. AI does the reading. You decide.
Vigitaxe is designed to work with the bank, books and tools you already use. Which connections come first is something we decide with pilot partners.
PeopleYou approve every return. Anything the rules cannot settle is flagged for you, or for your accountant if you have one.

What Vigitaxe is being built to handle
We start with the one that costs you most.
Credit capture
Claim every input tax credit.
Each purchase is matched to its receipt, the GST/HST (and QST input tax refund in Québec) is recorded, and the proof stays attached in case of an audit.
A quiet day of work, done for you
Most of it needs no one. The rest goes to the right person.
Illustrative example. Not a real business, and not a promise of results.
- Read 14 new card transactions and the receipts in your inbox.
- Matched a $1,130 supplier invoice: $130 HST recorded as an input tax credit.
- Restaurant receipt: meals are usually 50% claimable. Sent for review.
- New customer in Alberta: invoice set to GST 5%, not HST.
- Reminder: the quarterly return is due October 31. Draft ready to approve.
