How Much Are Canadian Customs on US Made Imports


Since many Canadian Goners import US made stuff from the US, is there a Canadian duty on those goods? I was under the impression that US made goods are not subject to duty under the NAFTA agreement. Please, comment if you have direct experience. Thank you!!!

If the goods are manufactured in the USA, no duty.
You will have to pay GST and Provincial tax unless you live in Alberta where there is no sales tax.

But if the origin of the product is manufactured elsewhere then you will have to pay import duty. The duty percentage will vary according to origin of product and the type of product.

You can save money by acting as your own broker. It is very simple to do as long as you have the time.

I have found that the brokerage fee from UPS typically was the highest.

When I bought my turntable I had to pay import duty (French turntable).
