Sending a package to Canada – customs advice

When you send a package to Canada from the US you will be required to complete a customs declaration form, but don’t worry because when you ship to Canada with Parcel Monkey, this is all taken care of as part of the booking process.

We’ll ask you the relevant questions, then provide you with a customs declaration form that you can print and attach to your package. See our customs advice page for more information. 

Do I have to pay duty on items shipped from the USA to Canada?  

Any item sent via courier or mail to Canada may be subject to Goods and Services Tax (GST) and/or duty. The Canada Border Services Agency calculates taxes based on the value of the item being shipped, the type of goods and the country of export. Depending on the goods, other taxes could also apply, including excise tax on luxury goods.  

You do not have to pay GST on the following goods that are imported into Canada:

  • goods worth CAN$20 or less
  • gifts from family members or friends who live abroad when the worth is CAN$60 or less.

Importing to Canada – restricted items

When you send a package to Canada it’s important to be aware of any items which are prohibited or restricted for import to Canada.

Prohibited items are goods which cannot be sent under any circumstances, mainly illegal or dangerous goods. However, restricted items are goods which can be imported, but have restrictions associated with them. For example, there are strict laws around importing food plant and animal products to Canada. You can find more detailed information about what food products can be imported to Canada from the US here.   

Other restricted items include drugs and health products, firearms, fireworks and ammunition, steel, precious metal, rough diamonds and second-hand mattresses. For more information on items restricted from import to Canada, the CBSA website is a really good source of information.

Before you send your package, please also check the Parcel Monkey prohibited and restricted items list. This is a list of items our carriers have prohibited or put restrictions on.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you offer door to door delivery?

    The Parcel Monkey marketplace uses a shipping calculator to find the best prices for shipping your items door to door via a range of different couriers. 

    With full tracking on almost all of our delivery services, you can follow your package from the moment it leaves you until it arrives with the recipient. We always advise providing the contact number of the recipient so that if needed, the courier can contact them to resolve any issues with the delivery.

    Some of our courier services are delivered to a local Post Office, where the recipient will need to collect the package from such as with DHL eCommerce to some remote areas so it is essential to provide a working contact number. Items shipped with Parcel Monkey are also done so DDU, so it might be that Customs need to collect payment from the recipient before delivery. We offer Customs Advice to help with the completion of any Customs Documents. 

    If you want to know more about what a courier is and how to choose the best service for your package, we can help.

  • Can I add protection cover to my order?

    When you place an order via the Parcel Monkey marketplace, during the booking process you can add protection cover to your item. As long as your item is not prohibited, has been packaged properly and you follow our Claims Procedure, you will be protected should your item be lost or damaged. 

    Some of our services offer no protection cover, but others do and some even offer free cover up to a certain value. You can view this information when you get a price via our shipping calculator. 

    Please ensure that the item is not on the prohibited items list as this will make it void.

    It is also vital to remember your package is going to be sent with global carriers, likely to be handled in various customs and airport departments so be sure to package the item correctly so it is well protected and cannot move around in the box.

  • How long will it take for my package to be delivered?

    Before you choose how to send your package, consider how quickly you need it to arrive. Transit times depend on two key factors- the shipping destination and the courier service you choose from the Parcel Monkey marketplace. 

    When choosing a courier from our marketplace, we will display an estimated delivery time, provided by the couriers themselves as they handle the goods.

    You can see how long it will take to arrive with the receiver and we advise that you share this tracking with the recipient so they can see when it is set to arrive. Always provide the recipient contact number when you book in case the delivery courier needs to contact them. 

    You can choose slower economy services such as DHL eCommerce if looking to save on the cost, or you can choose a speedy Express service that gets the package delivered more quickly like our 2-5 day International Drop Off service provided by FedEx, also available as a Pickup.
