The Government of Canada announced new measures to assist workers and businesses, including travel agencies and independent travel advisors, impacted by recent tariffs. Effective from April 2 until June 30, 2025, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will defer GST/HST remittances and corporate income tax payments, providing immediate financial relief for businesses during this period.

Additionally, the CRA will waive interest on GST/HST and corporate income tax (T2) instalments and arrears payments scheduled between April 2 and June 30, 2025, and provide interest relief on existing GST/HST and T2 balances for this same period. Interest charges will resume on July 1, 2025. Agencies and advisors are reminded that they must continue to file their GST/HST and T2 returns by the established deadlines to ensure compliance with all filing requirements.
