Your Vancouver CPA — Subhash Sharma, CPA, CMA, MBA
Vancouver is one of Canada’s most dynamic business cities — a hub for technology, real estate, import/export, professional services, restaurants, and a rapidly growing incorporated business community across the Metro Vancouver area and Fraser Valley. BC’s corporate tax rate of 11% (combined with federal) for qualifying CCPCs is one of the lowest in Canada — but only with active year-round tax planning to maintain it.
Bronte Bay CPA’s Vancouver office is located at 600-1285 West Broadway. Led by Subhash Sharma, CPA, CMA, MBA with nearly 40 years of Canadian and international experience, we serve incorporated businesses and professionals across Vancouver and all of BC through a fully cloud-based workflow on Xero.
BC Corporate Tax Rates — 2026
British Columbia has one of Canada’s most competitive corporate tax environments. For incorporated businesses in Vancouver and across BC, the key 2026 rates are:
| Income Type | Federal Rate | BC Rate | Combined Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Active business income up to $500,000 (CCPC small business deduction) | 9% | 2% | 11% |
| Active business income above $500,000 (general rate) | 15% | 12% | 27% |
| Passive/investment income (inside corporation) | ~38.67% | ~12% | ~50.67% |
📋 CPA Note: BC’s 11% combined small business rate is one of the lowest in Canada — compared to Ontario’s 12.2%. However, the passive income clawback rules apply equally in BC: passive income above $50,000 inside a CCPC begins reducing the small business deduction at $5 for every $1 above the threshold, with the deduction eliminated entirely at $150,000. Bronte Bay monitors passive income levels annually for every Vancouver client to protect the 11% rate.
