Estimate the likely delivery-company charge for a non-gift, non-excise parcel entering Canada.

Carrier fee

Rules as of 2026-06, last checked (version 2026.06.25-v1). Note: 2026 de-minimis rules are changing — always confirm the current rule with the official source before relying on this estimate.

How the Canadian threshold works

CUSMA courier de-minimis (duty CAD 150 / tax CAD 40 from US & Mexico). Concretely, customs duty is generally not charged at or below CAD 150 and GST (federal) at or below CAD 40, though qualifying-origin rules can change this. This estimate does not model gifts, excise goods, business imports, or customs reliefs.

What still needs precision

Category rates are deliberately broad and flagged for review. Each should be narrowed with representative commodity or tariff codes and an official source before relying on it for a real shipment.

FAQ

What is the Canadian import threshold for consumer parcels?

CUSMA courier de-minimis (duty CAD 150 / tax CAD 40 from US & Mexico). In practice, customs duty is generally not charged at or below CAD 150 and GST (federal) at or below CAD 40, though qualifying-origin rules can change this.

What does this Canadian calculator include?

It estimates item price, shipping, insurance, simplified customs duty, gst (federal), a carrier handling fee, and the total landed cost. It excludes excise goods such as alcohol and tobacco.

Is this a customs classification tool?

No. It uses simplified category buckets, so final charges depend on the exact commodity or tariff code, origin, reliefs, and the carrier's clearance process.

Estimate only. This calculator does not provide customs, legal, or tax advice. Final charges are determined by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and the parcel carrier, and do not include provincial sales tax (PST/HST) variations. De-minimis thresholds differ by origin and are subject to change; always confirm the current rule with the official source before relying on this estimate.
