Get back what is yours through strategic sales tax recovery

Unlock the full potential of your bottom line. Our specialized financial audit identifies hidden overpayments in Canadian sales taxes (GST, HST, PST) and injects vital capital back into your business operations with zero disruption.

OUR APPROACH

Comprehensive Sales Tax Recovery Solutions

Recovering overpaid sales tax is one of the most effective ways for businesses to improve cash flow while strengthening tax compliance. Canada’s sales tax system is made up of multiple tax frameworks—including the Goods and Services Tax (GST), Harmonized Sales Tax (HST), and Provincial Sales Tax (PST)—each with its own rules, exemptions, and recovery requirements. Navigating these regulations can be challenging, particularly for organizations operating across multiple provinces or managing high volumes of transactions.

At Leyton, our sales tax specialists help businesses identify overlooked recovery opportunities through detailed transaction reviews and advanced data analysis. We examine your financial records to uncover overpaid sales taxes, maximize eligible Input Tax Credit (ITC) claims, correct historical errors, and ensure compliance with both federal and provincial tax legislation. Our proactive approach minimizes financial risk while helping organizations recover funds that might otherwise remain unclaimed.

Whether you’re a Canadian business or an international company conducting business in Canada, our experts provide strategic guidance tailored to your industry and operational structure. From GST, HST, and PST recovery to ongoing indirect tax optimization, we deliver practical solutions that protect your bottom line, improve financial performance, and ensure your organization captures every available tax recovery opportunity.

How it helps

Targeted Canadian Sales Tax Frameworks

Canada’s sales tax system is complex. The rules governing GST (Goods and Services Tax), HST (Harmonized Sales Tax), and PST (Provincial Sales Tax) vary across provinces and territories, often resulting in overpayments and overlooked recovery opportunities. Through a comprehensive review of your transactions, our specialists identify recoverable amounts, ensure compliance with tax requirements, and maximize every refund your business is entitled to receive.

Goods & Services Tax (GST)

We scan national business-to-business transactions to ensure input tax credits (ITCs) are fully maximized and accurately claimed.

Harmonized Sales Tax (HST)

Navigating unified federal-provincial zones can lead to structural oversights. We isolate hidden systemic errors in blended-tax provinces.

Provincial Sales Tax (PST)

Retail and localized consumption rules present distinct regional complexities. We audit jurisdiction-specific rules to recover localized overpayments.
