Notes

(1) The federal and provincial tax rates shown in the tables apply to income earned by 

corporations other than Canadian-controlled private corporations (CCPCs). A general 

corporation typically includes public companies and their subsidiaries, that are resident in 

Canada, and Canadian-resident private companies that are controlled by non-residents.  

For tax rates applicable to CCPCs, see the tables "Federal and Provincial/Territorial Tax 

Rates for Income Earned by a CCPC Effective January 1, 2014 and 2015" and "Combined 

Federal and Provincial/Territorial Tax Rates for Income Earned by CCPC Effective  

 

January 1, 2014 and 2015".

(2) The federal and provincial tax rates shown in the tables apply to investment income  

earned by general corporations other than capital gains and dividends received from 

Canadian corporations. The rates that apply to capital gains are one-half of the rates  

shown in the tables. Dividends received from Canadian corporations are deductible in 

computing regular Part I tax, but may be subject to Part IV tax, calculated at a rate of 

33

%.

(3) Corporations that derive at least 10% of their gross revenue for the year from 

manufacturing or processing goods in Canada for sale or lease can claim the  

manufacturing and processing (M&P) deduction against their M&P income. General 

corporations that earn income from M&P activities are subject to the same rates as  

those that apply to CCPCs.

(4) A general tax rate reduction is available on qualifying income. Income that is eligible for 

other reductions or credits, such as small business income, M&P income, and investment 

income subject to the refundable provisions, is not eligible for this rate reduction. The 

general rate reduction does not apply to the portion of the taxable income of a corporation 

earned from a “personal services business”.
