Do I have to register a GST/HST account if I am self-employed and my customers are in USA?

If I sell services and goods to customers in USA (goods are purchased in USA as well) while I am working for it remotely in Canada, do I have to register a GST/HST account? I suppose that I do not need to charge GST on the goods selling in USA, correct? If I do not need to register a GST/HST account, do I only report the income as self-employed income in T2125 without providing the business account and GST/HST account number?

 

Thanks.

Troubleshooting

If you don't have a GST/HST number, then you can leave that space empty on your self-employment forms.

 

If you are not sure if you need to register for a GST/HST account, you will need to contact the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and confirm it with them. 

 

If you are in Canada or the United States, you can call the CRA at 1-800-959-8281. If you are elsewhere, you can call 613-940-8495. This page has more ways to contact the CRA: Contact the Canada Revenue Agency
