Scenario:
S-Corp with Canadian sourced income. S-Corp has products stored in a third-party warehouse in Canada. The S-Corp sells these products to customers in Canada. The third party warehouse ships the products to these Canadian customers for the S-Corp.
I consulted a CPA if this Canadian income would be subject to Canadian income tax. His response:
"You will not be liable for Canadian income tax on the sales made to Canadian customers so long as you do not maintain a PE in Canada. A PE excludes a warehouse for the distribution of goods. However, you will still have to charge GST/HST if your total sales to Canadian customers is $30,000 or more. 25% withholding tax is NA."
Id like a second opinion. Is this statement correct correct?
Non-resident Canadian income is not subject to Income tax
