U.S. Shipping & Duties
U.S. Shipping & Duties
Important Update (Effective August 29, 2025):
The United States has eliminated the “de minimis” duty exemption. This means all shipments from Canada to the U.S., regardless of value, are now subject to duties and import taxes.
How We Handle Duties & Taxes
- We use a Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) system
- Duties and import taxes are calculated and collected at checkout.
- You pay everything upfront—no extra charges at delivery.
What This Means for You
- Transparent Pricing – The total cost (including duties/taxes) is shown before you confirm your order.
- No Surprises – Your package arrives with all duties and taxes prepaid.
- Faster Delivery – Prepaid duties help avoid border delays or refused shipments.
