List of qualifying digital news subscriptions
Organizations, that are designated as qualified Canadian journalism organizations, may make a request to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) for a determination of whether the subscriptions they offer are qualifying subscription expenses.
Individuals can use this list to view:
- the names of organizations whose subscriptions qualify for the digital news subscription tax credit; and
- the names of the qualifying subscriptions and associated publications.
The information on this list is updated by the CRA on a regular basis.
Organizations are required to inform subscribers when a subscription they offer ceases to be a qualifying subscription expense for the credit. Existing subscriptions whose names have been published on this list as qualifying subscriptions will continue to qualify until the end of the calendar year in which the CRA amends the web page to indicate that the subscription no longer qualifies.
Note
Don't see a subscription? The list of qualifying digital news subscriptions is compiled based on organizations that submit a request to the CRA for a determination as to whether the subscriptions they offer meet the criteria in the Income Tax Act. Other organizations may offer a subscription that qualifies for the digital news subscription tax credit, but may have not requested a determination from the CRA. You should contact the organization that offers the digital subscription for more information if you do not see it not on this list.
