Corporate Income Tax (T2) in Newfoundland and Labrador: what every taxpayer needs to know

Newfoundland and Labrador uses HST at 15%. The economy is heavily influenced by offshore oil and gas (Hibernia, Terra Nova, White Rose, Hebron projects), mining (iron ore in Labrador), and fisheries. St. John's is the provincial capital and main business centre.

NL has a 30% Manufacturing and Processing Profits Tax Credit, an Aquaculture Capital Equipment Tax Credit, and Film and Video Industry Tax Credits. The Atlantic Investment Tax Credit also applies federally for qualified property used in NL. Resource royalties from oil and gas extraction interact with corporate tax planning.

For corporate income tax (t2) specifically, the Newfoundland and Labrador environment matters because the Newfoundland and Labrador small-business combined corporate rate is 11.5% on the first $500,000 of active business income — calculated as federal 9% plus the Newfoundland and Labrador small-business rate of 2.5%.

Deadlines and CRA timing for Newfoundland and Labrador

A T2 corporate return is due six months after the corporation's fiscal year-end. Corporate tax owing is due either two months (most corporations) or three months (CCPCs claiming the SBD) after year-end. Late filing triggers a 5% penalty plus 1% per month for up to 12 months.

BOMCAS Canada tracks every deadline on a per-client compliance calendar. You receive reminders well before each due date, and we file electronically to give you proof of timely submission.
