IMPORTANT: As of October 14th, expense reports for employees, and visitors (i.e. non-employees who are not students) should be processed in Concur. Concur will default the tax codes for conference fees, and do not need to be changed. The tax codes below do not apply when the expenses are processed in Concur. Click here to learn more.
The tax codes listed below would apply if the expense report is outside of Concur.
Tax code ER for conferences attended in Ontario.
Tax code EN for conferences attended in Prince Edward Island.
Tax code EN for conferences attended in New Brunswick or Newfoundland & Labrador.
Tax code EV for conferences attended in Nova Scotia.
Tax code EE.
Tax code E0.
The tax code used should reflect the location of the host organization/institution, even when participants attend virtually.
NOTE: If the conference was held in Canada and no taxes are indicated on the receipt, contact the vendor to find out why. If they say it is not an error because they were only recovering what it cost them to put on the conference, the tax code would be E0. (When a vendor is recovering only their costs, they do not need to charge taxes.)
