Businesses in interior communities that want to learn about returning to PST can take part in seminars being held in partnership with local chambers of commerce. Businesses that are required to collect PST must register by April 1, 2013.
Seminars are scheduled for Merritt and Chase on Wednesday, March 13, 2013, and Clearwater on Thursday, March 14, 2013. These seminars will cover the general principles of the PST and the new eTaxBC online business registration service.
