Under the new vapour product tax introduced by BC Bill 45 in November 2019, license holders must charge 20% PST on vapour products sold to clients in British Columbia. The Bill defines a "vapour product" as any e-vaping device, e-substance, or cartridge, part, or accessory for an e-vaping device. If a licence holder sells any products that fit the description of a "vapour product", they should follow the steps below to tag these products so that the appropriate PST is applied at checkout when these products are sold to BC.

  4. Click Save. This tags the product as a vapour product. If a client purchases the product as part of a medical order where the shipping province is British Columbia, a 20% tax will be applied to the product, with GST charged on top.


From the Edit tab, you can also Upload a Product Image.
