Saskatchewan Income Tax and PST: What You Pay in 2026

Updated Checked by the Tax-Services.ca editorial team How we check

Saskatchewan taxes come in three layers: a 10.5% provincial rate on your first $54,532 of taxable income for 2026, a 6% PST on most purchases, and the federal tax that every province shares. On a $60,000 salary you pay $9,140.68 in federal and Saskatchewan income tax, which is 15.2% of your pay.

What are the Saskatchewan income tax brackets for 2026?

There are three steps, and the province has no surtax and no health premium. That keeps the maths plain: your provincial tax is the bracket tax minus a credit on the basic personal amount.

Item 2026 figure
Provincial rate up to $54,532 10.5%
Provincial rate from $54,532 to $155,805 12.5%
Provincial rate above $155,805 14.5%
Basic personal amount $20,381
Provincial credit rate on that amount 10.5%
Provincial sales tax (PST) 6%

Everyone gets the basic personal amount, so the first $20,381 of your income attracts no provincial tax. The brackets move up with inflation each year, and the basic personal amount rose by $500 on top of that for 2026.

How much Saskatchewan tax comes off a $60,000 or $100,000 salary?

We ran both through the income tax calculator with the province set to Saskatchewan and a plain salary, nothing else.

At $60,000, Saskatchewan takes $3,802.38 and Ottawa takes $5,338.30. CPP and EI add $4,339.75, so you keep $46,519.57.

At $100,000, Saskatchewan takes $8,641.02 and federal tax is $13,301.60. That’s $21,942.61 in income tax, or 21.9% of your pay. After $5,769.52 of CPP and EI you keep $72,287.87.

Notice that taxable income comes out a little below your salary (about $59,435 on $60,000). That’s because part of your CPP contribution (the extra 1% above the old base) comes off your income before tax is worked out, and you don’t have to claim it. Nice, and automatic.

Is the Saskatchewan PST 6% on everything?

No, and this is where people get caught. The 6% applies to many goods and some services, and the GST of 5% sits on top. On a $100 item the GST and PST calculator shows $5 of GST and $6 of PST, so you pay $111. Both taxes are worked out on the price before tax.

Some items are exempt from one tax and not the other. Children’s items and some food are common examples. We haven’t checked the full list of exempt goods and services, and it changes, so read the province’s PST pages before you rely on a rate for something unusual.

What if you run a business in Saskatchewan?

Corporate tax is a different system. The CRA lists a general provincial rate of 12% and a small business rate of 1%, with a small business limit of $600,000. Federal tax on a small corporation is 9% after the small business deduction. Put the two together and $100,000 of active business income costs $10,000 in the corporate tax calculator. Our data file marks the provincial numbers as medium confidence, so check the CRA’s Saskatchewan page before you plan around the 1%.

If you work for yourself instead, you pay tax on your net business income and both halves of CPP. On $60,000 of net income the self-employed tax calculator gives $8,640.28 of income tax and $6,723.50 of CPP, which is $15,363.78 in total.

What does this not cover?

It doesn’t cover the Saskatchewan Low-Income Tax Credit or other refundable credits, since those depend on your family and income. The calculator also counts only the basic personal amount and the standard employment credits. Age and pension amounts exist in Saskatchewan, but they need your real figures. The tax credits calculator is federal only.

Finally, payroll tables and your final return can differ. Your employer withholds an estimate, and the balance owing is due by 30 April for most people. If you’re self-employed you file by 15 June, but you still pay by 30 April.

Where do the numbers come from?

Brackets and the basic personal amount come from the Government of Saskatchewan’s 2026 personal income tax structure page and the CRA payroll deduction tables for Saskatchewan (T4032-SK, January 2026). Federal rates and CPP and EI limits come from the CRA. The PST rate and the small business figures come from the province’s PST page and the CRA’s Saskatchewan corporate tax page. We checked them on 29 September 2026. This site has no link to the CRA or the province.
