Yukon’s Carbon Price Rebate Program: General Business Rebate
No fixed amount
Rebate
Description:
The Yukon Carbon Price Rebate Program helps Yukon businesses offset the cost of carbon pricing. Businesses that file a tax return in the territory receive a rebate from the Yukon government, administered by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). To ensure fairness, the program analyzes fuel consumption trends to estimate carbon levy payments for different business groups. This ensures that, on average, businesses get more back in rebates than they pay in levies.
The general business rebate is issued as a refundable credit. The rebate is assessed through your tax return and administered by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).
