What change occurred
On March 26, 2026, legislation repealing the Digital Services Tax Act (DST) received Royal Assent—retroactive to June 20, 2024, the date it first came into force. (canada.ca)
As a result, any DST payments made since that date must now be refunded with interest, normally applied to corporate tax refunds. The CRA will be closing DST program accounts—no action is required from registered businesses regarding registration status for DST going forward. (canada.ca)
