Identifier format invalid (GST number (Canada))	Goods and Services Tax number (Canada) applies to most goods and services made in Canada. The GST number consists of 15 characters: business number (first nine digits ) followed by a two letter abbreviation (denoting the type of account), followed by a four digit number. Letter abbreviation “RT” stands for “tax return”, and the final four digits indicate that it is business’s first RT account. If an entity has two different accounts, the second one would end in 0002. This rule checks presence of exactly 15 characters corresponding to the format of the Goods and Services Tax number (Canada) without considering possible whitespaces, hyphens or dots that might be comprised in the identifier value.
