Canadian provinces that have land transfer tax
The following Canadian provinces have a land transfer tax:
- Ontario
- British Columbia
- Quebec
In addition to the provincial land transfer tax, some municipalities in these provinces may also charge an additional municipal land transfer tax or “welcome tax”. For example, Toronto and Vancouver both have a municipal land transfer tax in addition to the provincial tax. It’s important to note that the rates and calculation methods for the land transfer tax vary between provinces and municipalities, so it’s always a good idea to consult with a qualified professional, such as a real estate lawyer or a licensed real estate agent, to understand the full range of costs and fees associated with buying or selling property in any province or municipality in Canada.
