If your gross sales reach $30,000.00
per year, you are required to register for GST.
Otherwise, it is optional. In some
cases it is beneficial to register for the GST right
at the start of your business. For example, if you
are buying equipment, you will only be eligible to
get your GST rebate on the GST you pay for the
equipment if you are already registered for the GST.
