Charity & NPO Accounting in Quebec
Charity accountants and not-for-profit bookkeeping in Quebec
Many Quebec OBNLs are constituted under Part III of the Companies Act. Federal charity rules and Quebec corporate and tax administration must be considered separately. Revenu Québec administers most Quebec GST/HST and QST PSB rebate claims. GoodLedger currently provides service and reporting in English.
GoodLedger is a CPA-led team of charity accountants — fixed-fee bookkeeping, T3010 and CRA compliance, and board-ready reporting, delivered cloud-first wherever you are in Quebec.
Statutory framework
- Framework
- Quebec Companies Act, Part III (for many OBNLs)
- Audit threshold
- Depends on the entity's law, governing documents, member decisions, and funding terms
- Review threshold
- No Canada-wide threshold should be applied
Statutory thresholds are starting points and may depend on soliciting status, public-benefit status, member resolutions, bylaws, and funder agreements. We map your engagement scope to all of them.
Charity accounting in Quebec: what's different
Many Quebec not-for-profits are constituted under Part III of the Quebec Companies Act and file with the Registraire des entreprises, separately from their federal charitable registration with the CRA. The provincial and federal systems use different forms, deadlines, and definitions, so a Quebec charity effectively manages two parallel compliance calendars.
On the tax side, Revenu Québec — not the CRA — administers most Quebec GST/HST and QST PSB rebate claims, so bookkeeping needs to track both the federal rebate and the QST rebate through the correct provincial forms. GoodLedger currently provides service and reporting to Quebec organizations in English.
