Tax in Quebec

Sales tax when you buy gold in Quebec

Gold jewellery in Quebec carries 14.975% (5% GST + 9.975% QST). On a $1,000.00 ring that is $149.75 of tax, for a total of $1,149.75. The rate is the same in every city and town in Quebec.

Bars, ingots, wafers and coins of gold or platinum at least 99.5% pure, or silver at least 99.9% pure, carry no GST/HST. This is the federal rule, so it applies in Quebec too (Canada Revenue Agency, GST/HST Memorandum 17-1). A Gold Maple Leaf coin qualifies. A 14K chain or a 22K coin does not.

Quebec also charges its own 9.975% QST. QST is reported to follow the federal rule, so qualifying bullion carries no QST. Confirm with Revenu Québec. Source.

Tax when you sell gold in Quebec

You do not charge sales tax when you sell your own jewellery or coins. If you sell for more than you paid, the profit can be a capital gain, and half of a capital gain is added to your income. For jewellery and coins, a sale of $1,000 or less usually leaves nothing to report.How tax on selling works.
