Exporting to Canada

ISL Customs Brokers has the solutions you need for easy importing of goods into Canada.

Traditionally sales to Canadian importers have been on an "ex-factory basis." The Canadian importer needs a Canadian customs broker to process imports through Canada Customs and remit applicable duties or taxes.

This method leads to pricing confusion as not all brokers charge the same rates for service. Potential importers may be reluctant to purchase, fearing the unknowns of importing.

Revenue Canada offers non-resident importers the opportunity to sell to their clients on a landed basis. Revenue Canada requires non Canadian firms to post a security bond when total sales worldwide exceed $30,000 and register for the Goods and Services Tax. This bond must cover the average outstanding duty and taxes that would be owed to Revenue Canada for goods imported.
