Canadian Art & Your Business
Did you know that purchasing original Canadian artwork for your business may provide tax benefits?
Original artwork acquired for use in a Canadian business may qualify as depreciable property for Capital Cost Allowance (CCA) purposes, subject to CRA requirements. This can allow eligible businesses to deduct a portion of the cost of qualifying artwork over time.
For businesses looking to enhance an office, reception area, boardroom or other professional space, original Canadian artwork can be both a lasting addition to the environment and a potential business tax consideration.
Eligibility and the amount that may be claimed depend on the circumstances of the purchaser and the artwork. We recommend consulting your accountant or tax professional to determine how the current CRA rules apply to your purchase.

BASIC QUALIFICATION CRITERIA:
Art value over $200
Not be held for resale or otherwise included in inventory
Must be created by a Canadian artist
We strongly recommend you contact a Chartered Professional Accountant regarding the specifics of your purchase to determine if it will qualify for a deduction.
