Sales Tax Rate in Manitoba in 2026
| Tax | Rate |
|---|---|
| GST (federal) | 5% |
| RST (provincial) | 7% |
| Combined rate | 12% |
Manitoba collects the federal 5% GST and its own 7% Retail Sales Tax (RST). According to the Government of Manitoba, RST is calculated on the selling price before GST is added, so both taxes start from the same amount.
The RST rate went back from 8% to 7% on July 1, 2019. The 12% combined rate matches British Columbia's, even though the goods and services covered by each provincial tax differ.
Worked Example: $120.00 in Manitoba
GST = price before tax × 5%
RST = price before tax × 7%
Total = price before tax + GST + RST
Example: $120.00 before tax in Manitoba
The math: $120.00 × 5% = $6.00 of GST; $120.00 × 7% = $8.40 of RST. Each tax is rounded to the cent, then added to the price, for a total of $134.40.
The Other Way: Finding the Price Before Tax
If the displayed price already includes tax, divide it by 1.12: $134.40 ÷ 1.12 = $120.00. Subtracting 12% from the total would give $118.27, too low a result: the percentage applies to the price before tax, not the total.
Frequently Asked Questions: Sales Tax in Manitoba
What is the sales tax rate in Manitoba in 2026?
The combined rate is 12% in Manitoba: the federal 5% GST plus the 7% RST, each calculated on the price before tax. On $100.00, that's $5.00 of GST, $7.00 of RST and a total of $112.00.
How do I calculate sales tax in Manitoba?
Multiply the price before tax by 1.12 to get the tax-included total, or by 12% to get the tax alone (calculating GST and RST separately, then adding them). On $120.00, the tax is $14.40 and the total is $134.40.
How do I remove sales tax from a price in Manitoba?
Divide the tax-included amount by 1.12, instead of subtracting 12%. A $134.40 total gives back $134.40 ÷ 1.12 = $120.00 before tax. The CalculatriceTaxes.ca reverse calculator applies this formula automatically.
Is RST calculated on top of GST?
No. GST and RST are each calculated on the price before tax, without compounding. On $100.00, that's $5.00 of GST and $7.00 of RST, not RST calculated on $105.00.
Has Manitoba's RST rate changed?
Yes. Manitoba's Retail Sales Tax went from 8% to 7% on July 1, 2019. The combined rate with GST has been 12% since then.
