Wha tax rate for credit card Interest?

I'm new to QBO and accounting.

I'm in the process of categorizing my credit card transactions. For the interest charged on the credit card, what tax rate do I choose? I'm in Ontario (CDN) but I wasn't charged HST on the interest. Is it exempt?

 

second question,

 

Is the category chose by QB, Interest expense, the correct category, or should I add interest payments to bank fees?

 

Thank you!Screen Shot 2023-04-25 at 9.51.42 AM.png
