Band Cards Accepted List
As per the agreement signed between the Mohawk Council of Kahnawá:ke and the Government of Quebec, Mohawks of Kahnawá:ke are entitled to a point of sale exemption of the "Quebec sales tax ".
If your sale is not exempted from the Quebec sales tax, you have two options: A) Buy the Item and claim a refund of taxes paid; or B) shop from merchants who comply with the agreement.
In any circumstance, you should contact the Tax Consultant at the MCK to conduct an investigation. When calling, please provide the store name and person responsible for customer service.
To ensure Kahnawakehró:non can rightfully shop with tax exemption, a band card accepted list was created. This listing provides Kahnawakehró:non with a list of merchants who comply with the agreement, and those who are illegally refusing tax exemption. Community members can avoid shopping at locations that do not comply.
If you are purchasing from an outside location, ensure you have the documents on hand:
