DOES YOUR COMPANY OPERATE IN CANADA AND DO YOU WANT TO CONTROL YOUR COSTS? WE CAN HELP YOU MANAGE YOUR NON-RESIDENT EMPLOYER CERTIFICATION AND REMAIN COMPLIANT WITH THE CANADA REVENUE AGENCY (CRA).
Non-Resident Employer Certification in Canada is a procedure put in place by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) to allow foreign (non-resident) employers to avoid withholding and remitting Canadian taxes on remuneration paid to their employees when they are working temporarily in Canada.
The aim of this certification is to simplify the administrative process for non-resident employers who send their employees to Canada on short-term assignments. It avoids the complexities of withholding Canadian tax on salaries that may already be taxed in the employer’s or employee’s home country.
To be eligible for this certification, the non-resident employer must generally:
The employer must not have a permanent presence in Canada, such as a branch or fixed office.
Employees must be in Canada for a limited and specific period, often defined as less than 183 days in a 12-month period.
Often, there must be a tax treaty between Canada and the employer's or employee's home country to prevent double taxation.
Are you looking to break into the Canadian market without the red tape but facing the following challenges?
Understanding the specific requirements and nuances of Canadian tax rules can be difficult without specialist expertise.
Errors in the information provided, such as incorrect tax identification numbers, can result in incorrect tax deductions and penalties.
Changes in the structure of the company or the status of beneficiaries may require regular updates to the forms, which can be tedious.
For international entities, coordinating tax information with local and Canadian regulations can be complex.
Not being aware of tax treaties between Canada and other countries may result in the incorrect application of withholding tax rates.
Meeting strict submission deadlines to avoid additional penalties and withholding taxes can be a logistical challenge.
