Question about GST/HST

[retrogal74]

Hi!

I'm preparing to reopen my shop after many years and am a bit rusty. I'm wondering where I go to enter my GST/HST number?

Also I noticed that there is a form that I may need to fill out called the Billing Agent Authorization Tax form. Is this correct that I should be filling this out and sending it in?

And one more.... It looks like Ebay collects and submits all the taxes for us. Am I right on this?

Thanks kindly!

Before you list anything, make sure your Managed Payments account is in place.

EBay needs your checking account information and secondary ID. They ask for our SIN, but if you don't want to use that, and many don't, I used my passport and DH used his driving license.

Without MP in place, eBay cannot transfer your customer payments to your checking account.
