Transfer Pricing Services for Your Business
At Bestax, we help Canadian companies stay compliant with the Canada Revenue Agency’s (CRA) transfer pricing regulations. We aid companies with mitigating audit risks and optimizing tax efficiency.
Transfer pricing sets the value for goods, services, or intangible assets exchanged between related companies. In Canada, these transactions must follow the arm’s length principle, meaning prices should reflect what independent parties would agree to.
Getting it right matters. Proper transfer pricing ensures profits are reported accurately in Canada and helps you avoid costly CRA penalties or adjustments.
Our team helps you build a strong transfer pricing strategy. We prepare clear documentation, assess risks, and design pricing policies that meet CRA standards. We also support you through audits, assist with advance pricing arrangements, and make sure your cross-border transactions remain compliant and defensible.

I recently started my own tattoo parlor, and these guys helped me out from day one. They walked me through setting up my business and gave me sound advice on handling my accounting. What I like most is that they don’t try to oversell you things you don’t need. You can tell they’re more interested

Frequently Asked Questions
What is transfer pricing, and why is it important?
Transfer pricing means setting prices for goods, services, or intangible assets traded between related companies, like a parent company and its subsidiary. It is important as it ensures profits are reported fairly and helps avoid CRA penalties or adjustments.
Who needs to follow Canada’s transfer pricing rules?
Any Canadian business or individual that deals with related companies outside Canada must follow these rules.
What is the arm’s length principle?
It’s the idea that related companies must price their transactions as if they were dealing with independent businesses.
What forms are required for transfer pricing reporting?
Canadian businesses must file certain CRA forms to report related-party transactions. Bestax helps you prepare and file these forms accurately and on time.
What is contemporaneous documentation, and why is it important?
This is the paperwork that supports your transfer pricing decisions, such as contracts, pricing methods, financial data, and comparable market information. Keeping this documentation is important as it shows the CRA that you made reasonable efforts to comply. It can also help you avoid penalties if your business is audited.
How can Bestax help with Advance Pricing Arrangements (APAs)?
We guide you through the CRA’s APA process, which allows you to agree in advance on transfer pricing methods for future transactions. This gives you certainty, reduces disputes, and ensures ongoing compliance.
What happens if the CRA audits my transfer pricing?
If you’re audited, the CRA will review your prices, documentation, and methods. Bestax provides full support; we help you respond to CRA inquiries, defend your pricing policies, and minimize any adjustments or penalties.
What are the penalties for non-compliance?
If your transfer pricing isn’t supported properly, the CRA can apply a 10% penalty on certain adjustments under the Income Tax Act. Additional fines may apply for late or incomplete filings. We help you stay compliant to avoid these risks.
How often should I update my transfer pricing documentation?
You should update it every year or whenever there’s a major change in your intercompany transactions. Bestax regularly reviews and updates your documentation to keep it current and compliant.
