U.s. To Toronto Shipping Fees

Businesses often wonder what shipping fees may be incurred if and/or when they need to ship from the United States to Toronto

. Delivery services in Toronto are easier to arrange than many other cities in Canada, simply due to a significant amount of shipping traffic. However, even with the amount of across-the-border shipping that occurs, there will still be additional fees incurred when shipping goods through customs. Any delivery service in Toronto should be able to inform you of what fees are assessed, and to what agency requires the payment. In addition, there are forms and documents that may need, and these companies should be able to give you information on obtaining these forms and filling them out properly.

Delivery services in Toronto are likely to tell you that any shipment imported into the country of Canada will be subject to a goods and services tax (G.S.T.) that amounts to 7% of the total cost. This tax is paid by the purchaser (consumer) of the good or service. A small brokerage fee charged by the delivery system will also be assessed for the transportation of your shipment. The good news is, this fee is the same amount regardless of the size of the shipment. Henceforth, your best bet is to combine smaller shipments into a larger one to avoid the multiple fees you would normally incur when sending materials individually. There are delivery services in Toronto that can assist with warehousing, making it possible to move a large shipment all at once, thereby avoiding the multiple small shipments.

A reputable delivery service should be able to inform you of all the fees and charges that your goods may be subject to when shipping across the United States/Canadian border. Additionally, because of the huge amount of shipping traffic that moves between these two countries regularly, any shipping company that is involved with international transportation of goods will be able to educate you on any taxes that may be imposed when transporting your goods to Toronto. And fortunately, as a direct result of the United States/Canadian border traffic, you will not likely be surprised by any hidden charges not fully disclosed by your delivery service. This is different that when shipping to other foreign countries and cities who do not receive United States traffic as regularly, or have differing laws. Their regulations may not make the processing of U.S. shipments as simple.
