We have a mutual obligation to adhere to the rules and regulations established by Canada Border Services Agency and US Customs and Border Protection. We take this obligation very seriously and require all our customers to understand and adhere to all regulations.
Lack of adherence to these regulations can lead to package confiscation, fees, penalties and even a ban from importing.

All commercial cargo imported into Canada requires a business number and an Importer Number. Please note the CBSA’s definition of “commercial” is extremely broad: anything for “commercial, institutional, or occupational use” is considered commercial.
Valid Business Number: This number serves as a unique identifier for your business and is essential for conducting import-related transactions.
Importer Number: In addition to a valid business number, businesses seeking to benefit from our import services are required to obtain an importer number. An importer number facilitates customs clearance and compliance processes, allowing for smooth and efficient import operations.
We partner with all carriers, including (but not limited to) UPS, USPS, FedEx Home, FedEx Ground, DHL, Prestige and many other trucking companies.
