• marketing and facilitating the sale of listed items
• collecting buyer payments at checkout
• collecting applicable GST/HST from buyers
• arranging delivery with Déjà Décor’s delivery partner
• remitting payouts to Seller after successful completion

2.2 Seller Tax Status Representation

Seller represents and warrants that one of the following applies:

• Non-registrant: Seller is not registered for GST/HST and does not have a GST/HST number
• Registrant: Seller is registered for GST/HST and provides a valid GST/HST number

Seller agrees to keep this information accurate and up to date.

2.3 GST/HST Handling on Sales to Buyers

Déjà Décor will charge and collect applicable GST/HST from buyers on taxable sales made through the platform and will account for and remit GST/HST as required under applicable Canadian law, including Canada Revenue Agency rules applicable to agents and any elections in effect between Seller and Déjà Décor.

2.4 GST506 Election (Registrant Sellers)

If Seller is registered for GST/HST, Seller agrees — as a condition of listing — to execute CRA Form GST506 (Election Between Agent and Principal) with Déjà Décor, effective as of the listing date or another agreed effective date.

Both parties will retain a copy of the executed election in their records.
