Depending on whether you have to pay GST, PST, or both, this cost can add up considerably. Depending on the cost of the vehicle, your sales tax could end up being thousands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cost of Tax on New Cars in BC<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to the car tax required to be paid on vehicles, how old or new the vehicle is doesn\u2019t matter quite as much as where you purchase the vehicle from. In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.icbc.com\/brochures\/pst-on-vehicles\">BC<\/a>, the type of taxes you pay on a vehicle you purchase is dependent on whether the purchase is a private sale or you purchase the vehicle from a GST registrant (usually a dealership).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In BC, when you purchase a vehicle from a GST registrant, you\u2019re required to pay both GST and PST. GST is the federal tax that\u2019s known as the Goods and Services Tax, while PST is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.springfinancial.ca\/blog\/tax-tips\/canadian-federal-provincial-income-tax-brackets\">provincial sales tax<\/a>. When you purchase a vehicle through a private sale, you only pay PST when you register the vehicle in your name with ICBC (Insurance Corporation of British Columbia). That said, PST charges can be higher through a private sale than they are through a dealership.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is the Cost of Tax on Cars Purchased Online?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With technology becoming increasingly popular, people now purchase vehicles online or through online retailers. That said, the amount you pay in provincial sales tax is based on whether you\u2019re buying a car from an online dealership or not. Whether you\u2019re purchasing a new car or a used car from a dealership, online or in person, you pay sales tax. However, you pay tax based on the car&rsquo;s price, not its type, which differs from paying tax on vehicles purchased through a private sale.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cost of Tax for Private Sales vs Dealership in BC<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The GST and PST rates you have to pay vary with the vehicle&rsquo;s price. That said, the rates vary depending on whether you purchase through a private sale or a GST registrant. Through a dealership, PST rates range between 7% and 20%, while the range for private sales is 12% to 20%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The PST rate you pay when purchasing a vehicle at a dealership depends on the vehicle&rsquo;s overall cost. This doesn\u2019t matter whether the vehicle is new or used, but it must be considered a passenger vehicle. Keep in mind, though, that while the PST on a vehicle varies, the GST rate is standard for all vehicles at 5%. However, if you have a trade-in as well when you\u2019re purchasing, you only pay PST and GST tax on the difference between the full value of the vehicle and the trade-in value, meaning that you would end up paying less PST.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to private sales in Canada, you pay PST when you register the vehicle with ICBC. However, the way the rate is calculated is a bit different. The amount you pay in PST is based on either the purchase price of the vehicle or the wholesale value; whichever price is greater. This is a fairly new change, though, and its purpose is to prevent buyers from putting in a low purchase price to avoid paying PST tax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Cost of the Vehicle<\/td><td>PST Rate at Dealership<\/td><td>Private Sale PST Rate<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Under $55,000<\/td><td>7%<\/td><td>12%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>$55,000 \u2013 $55,999<\/td><td>8%<\/td><td>12%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>$56,000 \u2013 $56,999<\/td><td>9%<\/td><td>12%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>$57,000 \u2013 $124,999<\/td><td>10%<\/td><td>12%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>$125,000 \u2013 $149,999<\/td><td>15%<\/td><td>15%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>$150,000 and Up<\/td><td>20%<\/td><td>20%<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Taxes Based on Car Type in BC<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While there are some variations in the PST cost depending on the vehicle you purchased, none of them are based on the vehicle&rsquo;s brand or make. The distinguishing factors that determine the PST rate on the vehicle are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If it\u2019s a zero-emission vehicle<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If it\u2019s a used or new ZEV<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If it\u2019s a passenger vehicle or not<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the vehicle is not a passenger vehicle and it\u2019s not a ZEV, then the PST cost in a private sale is 12% of the purchase price, regardless of the purchase price. However, if the non-passenger, non-ZEV vehicle was purchased from a GST registrant, imported, or leased, then the PST rate drops to 7%.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the vehicle is a ZEV, and it\u2019s used, the rates we listed apply to both private and dealership sales. However, the vehicle will have to meet certain stipulations to qualify. This only applies to passenger vehicle ZEVs, though. Non-passenger ZEVs pay 12% in a private sale and 7% from a GST registrant. The cost of the vehicle isn\u2019t a factor in this case.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>BC Luxury Car Tax<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you hear the term luxury car tax, it may seem like this is an added tax for luxury vehicles. The term is actually slightly deceiving. Luxury tax is the term used to describe an increase in the cost of PST based on the price of the vehicle, so the amount of tax you pay is based on the cost of the vehicle. The more expensive the vehicle is, the higher your tax rate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you purchase a vehicle from a dealership, if the cost is under $55,000, the PST rate is only 7%. As the price increases, so does the PST rate. If you purchase a vehicle priced between $57,000 and $124,999, the PST is 10%. Not only do you pay more because the price is higher, but the PST rate is higher, too. On top of that, you have to pay the 5% GST since you\u2019re purchasing the vehicle from a GST-regulated dealer. This brings your total tax percentage to 15%. On a $70,000 vehicle, the total tax bill is $10,500, not to mention the interest on the loan if you require one as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you\u2019re considering purchasing a vehicle, whether it\u2019s new or used, the rate of tax is something to consider. It\u2019s part of the budget, and as you get into the expensive luxury cars, the cost increases even more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Luxury Car Tax&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to the luxury car tax, the tax rate is based on the vehicle&rsquo;s cost. So, the more expensive the vehicle,, the higher the tax rate you pay. For 2025 and 2026, these tax rates haven\u2019t changed, so how much you pay still depends on the total amount of the vehicle. For vehicles over $150,000, the retail sales tax is the highest at 20%. The simplest way to save money, whether it\u2019s a zero-emission electric vehicle or not, is to purchase something at a reasonable price.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Avoid Luxury Tax<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In British Columbia, the luxury tax applies only to vehicles costing over $55,000. The cost of tax on vehicles under $55,000 is 7% PST, 5% GST on vehicles from a dealership and 12% on vehicles purchased through a private sale. To avoid the luxury tax, you\u2019d need to purchase a vehicle under $55,000. Other than that, there\u2019s really no way to avoid it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.springfinancial.ca\/apply-now?SID=blog&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=inlinebanner&amp;utm_content=taxes-on-cars-in-british-columbia\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1500px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1500\/581;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/springfinancial.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BlogBanner.png\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Avoiding Tax on Used Cars in BC<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unfortunately, in BC, it\u2019s not always possible to avoid taxes when purchasing a vehicle. When it comes to new vehicles, there aren\u2019t really any exemptions. That said, when it comes to used vehicles, certain situations could provide you with a tax exemption. Let\u2019s take a look.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Being a New Resident to BC:\u00a0 If you\u2019re new to BC and moved from out of province, you could qualify for a PST exemption on your vehicle that was previously registered in another province. To qualify, your vehicle must be used for personal use only, and you must have owned the vehicle for at least a month before you moved to the province. The vehicle must also arrive within one year of your move.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Receiving Gifts and Inheritance: Vehicles received due to the death of a relative or as a gift from a family member may qualify for an exemption from PST, since no money changed hands for you to receive the vehicle.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Purchasing Used Zero-Emission Vehicles: From February 2022 until February 2027, you can purchase a used vehicle without having to pay any PST. Used ZEVs purchased privately must have at least 6,000 km on them to be eligible.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another way to avoid or reduce the PST you pay on your vehicle is to get a vehicle appraisal. Independent motor vehicle appraisers can assess the vehicle\u2019s value and give you an accurate determination of what it\u2019s worth. Since the tax you pay is based on whether the purchase price or the vehicle\u2019s fair market value is higher, getting an accurate appraisal can greatly reduce the cost of PST and potentially even lower your PST rate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tax on Cars in Canada<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019ve gone over the cost of tax on new and used cars in BC, but if you\u2019re choosing to purchase a vehicle in a different province, then the tax costs will vary. Each province has their own PST rates and regulations over how these rates are charged.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That said, no matter where you purchase a vehicle in Canada, the GST rate of 5% applies to vehicles purchased from GST registrants, and no GST applies to vehicles purchased through private sales. However, some provinces don\u2019t charge GST\/PST separately; they have the Harmonized Sales Tax, also referred to as HST.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Province<\/td><td>PST\/HST\/QST\/RST&nbsp; at Dealership<\/td><td>PST\/HST\/QST\/RST on Private Sales<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Alberta<\/td><td>5%GST<\/td><td>0%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Saskatchewan<\/td><td>6% PST<\/td><td>6% PST (over $5,000)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Manitoba<\/td><td>7% RST<\/td><td>7% RST<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>New Brunswick<\/td><td>10% HST<\/td><td>15% PST<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Nova Scotia<\/td><td>10% HST<\/td><td>15% PST<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Newfoundland and Labrador<\/td><td>10% HST<\/td><td>12% PST<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Prince Edward Island<\/td><td>10% HST<\/td><td>15% PST<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ontario<\/td><td>8% HST<\/td><td>13% RST<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Quebec<\/td><td>9.958% QST<\/td><td>9.975% QST<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Nunavut<\/td><td>5%GST<\/td><td>0%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Yukon<\/td><td>5%GST<\/td><td>0%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Northwest Territories<\/td><td>5%GST<\/td><td>0%<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do You Pay PST on a Leased Vehicle?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The short answer is yes, you do have to pay PST on a leased vehicle in BC. However, because you\u2019re making payments, this fee isn\u2019t paid up front. It\u2019s tacked onto every payment every month. However, how much tax you pay is based on the cost of the vehicle and can range anywhere from 7% to 10%.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means that there aren\u2019t many differences between leasing and buying taxes. The main difference is that with tax on lease payments, you get monthly lease tax treatment. If you\u2019re trading in a vehicle for the lease, though, then you need to consider the trade-in credit rules, where you only pay taxes on the net difference, and you don\u2019t pay tax on rebates.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are You Able to Claim a PST Refund?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The only 2 ways that you can claim an overpaid PST refund in Canada are if you overpaid or you paid the tax in error. On top of that, you have a time limit to claim a refund of 4 years from when the tax was paid in order to submit the tax refund application. That said, if it\u2019s been 180 days or less, you can try requesting the tax directly from the business that collected it. Otherwise, you have to go through the CRA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Taxes That Apply to US Vehicles That Are Imported<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you\u2019re importing from the US into Canada, according to the United States Surtax order, you must pay a 25% retaliatory surtax. You may also have to pay up to 6.1% in import duty fees at customs clearance for non-NAFTA builds. You also need to pay GST\/HST, PST, an AC excise tax, and an RIV(Registrar of Imported Vehicles) fee. You may also need to pay for an out-of-province inspection.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do They Have Tax Exemptions for Status Card Holders?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Canada, there is the First Nations exemption for status card holders, which is known as a status card purchase. This means that you\u2019re both GST and PST-exempt and are available for both on-reserve purchases and off-reserve deliveries. That said, according to local laws, some purchases may still incur certain First Nations Taxes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This isn\u2019t the only tax exemption in Canada, though. While there isn\u2019t a commercial vehicle exemption, there is a farm vehicle exemption.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How ICBC Registration and Autoplan Fees Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you purchase a vehicle in BC, whether it\u2019s new or used, you will have to go to an Autoplan broker in order to register your vehicle with ICBC Insurance Premiums. In order to do this, you\u2019re required to have a transfer\/tax form (APV9T form). You will also need to pay a vehicle registration fee in order to register the vehicle in your name.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you purchased the vehicle used, it\u2019s recommended that you do a lien check, BIN history report, and CarFax report on your own. Even though this has nothing to do with insurance, it could save you a lot of money in the long run.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In BC, when you register a used vehicle from a dealer or private transaction, you also have to pay taxes. The amount you pay is based on what you paid for the vehicle or the Canadian Black Book Wholesale price, whichever is greater. To determine this, you\u2019re going to need a private sale bill of sale, and you can determine the fair market value assessment. Autoplan brokers implemented this in order to stop penalties for underreporting to save money on federal and provincial taxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Are Dealer Fees and Documentation Fees?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you purchase a vehicle from a dealership, you\u2019re going to see a dealer documentation fee, an administration fee and maybe even a federal luxury tax or select luxury tax items tax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dealer fees cover all the paperwork, contract prep, title transfers and vehicle registration. The general delivery fees cover extra overhead like pre-delivery inspections, professional appraisals, cleaning and internal handling. These don\u2019t happen when you\u2019re buying privately, though, since what you pay depends on high mileage, car value, and certain circumstances of the sale. These are fees that are only charged by companies that sell vehicles.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Zero-Emission Rebates and How They Offset Taxes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you purchase an electric vehicle, you could be eligible for ZEV rebate programs, as part of the CleanBC Incentives program. You don\u2019t need proof of purchase price in order to qualify since this federal iZEV rebate is taken off at the time of the purchase. This can save thousands of dollars and include other incentives like complementary hybrid vehicle treatment and charging station credits.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Gifting a Vehicle Works Between Spouses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you gift a vehicle between eligible family members in BC, such as gifting between spouses, you are not eligible to pay provincial sales tax. When you do an inherited vehicle transfer or estate vehicle transfer, you also aren\u2019t required to pay PST either.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In British Columbia, whether you purchase a new or used car, you will have to pay taxes on your purchase.
