Tourism adds a seasonal layer along the coast and in the Okanagan. A Vancouver software company matches subscription billing to its payment processor, a Prince George forestry supplier reconciles equipment purchases in Canadian and US dollars, and a Kelowna contractor tracks holdbacks across multi-year builds. That spread of industries means BC businesses need bookkeeping built around GST, PST and multi-currency transactions. Pacific Time (PT). Our team works 8am to 8pm ET, which covers 5am to 5pm PT, so British Columbia gets a full business day of live coverage. ## British Columbia tax and compliance notes ### GST plus PST at 7 percent British Columbia charges 7 percent provincial sales tax on top of the 5 percent federal GST, so most retail and many service invoices carry two separate tax lines rather than one blended HST rate. PST registration, exemptions and remittance follow their own provincial schedule, separate from the GST return filed with the CRA. ### Payroll remittances and WorkSafeBC CRA sets each employer's remitter type from their average monthly withholding two years prior, which determines whether source deductions are due monthly or more often. T4 slips are due to employees and the CRA by the last day of February, and most BC employers also carry WorkSafeBC coverage for workplace injury insurance. ### Employer Health Tax and EFILE BC's Employer Health Tax applies once payroll passes an annual exemption threshold, so a growing headcount needs tracking against that limit every year. We prepare GST, PST and payroll workpapers inside your software, and your CPA or another CRA-registered EFILE transmitter files the actual returns, since we do not hold EFILE registration ourselves. General notes, not advice. Filing is done by you, your CPA, accountant or registered agent; we prepare the workings. ## Industries we serve in British Columbia - **[Construction](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/construction/)** British Columbia's tight housing market keeps contractors busy on multi-year builds that need holdbacks and PST tracked accurately. - **[Real estate agents](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/real-estate-agents/)** Metro Vancouver's high-value resale market means commission trust accounting is a constant task for BC brokerages. - **[SaaS](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/saas/)** Vancouver's technology cluster produces subscription software companies that need recurring billing reconciled against payment processors. - **[Ecommerce](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/ecommerce/)** BC's port access and cross-border trade support online sellers who need multi-currency sales matched to bank deposits. - **[Restaurants](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/restaurants/)** A strong tourism season along the coast and in the Okanagan means restaurants need daily till reconciliation and seasonal cash flow tracking. ## Software British Columbia businesses use - [QuickBooks Online](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/quickbooks-online/) - [Xero](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/xero/) - [Wave](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/wave/) - [Dext](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/dext/) - [Plooto](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/plooto/) - [All 50 platforms](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/) ## Services for British Columbia businesses - [Bookkeeping](https://ledgerbpo.com/ca/services/bookkeeping/) - [Invoicing and billing](https://ledgerbpo.com/ca/services/invoicing-and-billing/) - [Accounts receivable](https://ledgerbpo.com/ca/services/accounts-receivable/) - [Accounts payable](https://ledgerbpo.com/ca/services/accounts-payable/) - [Bank reconciliation](https://ledgerbpo.com/ca/services/bank-reconciliation/) - [Month end close](https://ledgerbpo.com/ca/services/month-end-close/) - [All 84 services](https://ledgerbpo.com/services/) ## Frequently asked questions ### Do you have an office in British Columbia? No, LedgerBPO has no local office in British Columbia. We are the accounting and billing division of SS Support Network LLC, registered in Vancouver, Washington, in the United States, with a second office in Pakistan that covers BC business hours. Your dedicated accountant works remotely inside your own software, and there is no premises in the province to visit. ### How do you handle GST and PST filing for a BC business? We reconcile sales and purchases inside your bookkeeping software and prepare the GST and PST workings separately, since British Columbia does not blend the two into HST. Your CPA or a CRA-registered EFILE transmitter reviews those workings and files both returns, because we do not transmit returns ourselves. Keeping the two tax lines separate from day one avoids reconciliation problems at filing time. ### Do you work with Vancouver technology and construction companies? Yes, we support BC software companies and contractors with bank reconciliation, accounts payable and month-end close inside the accounting software you already use. A dedicated accountant tracks subscription revenue or project costs consistently, so your reporting is ready well before your CPA needs it. ## Nearby - [Vancouver](https://ledgerbpo.com/ca/locations/vancouver/) - [Alberta](https://ledgerbpo.com/ca/locations/alberta/) - [All locations](https://ledgerbpo.com/locations/) Next step ## Books closed.
