ONLY THE FOLLOWING SHIPPING OPTIONS ARE VALID TO CANADANote: do not enter spaces in your postal code! (otherwise UPS will not be able to calculate shipping costs)1) UPS "Canada Standard" (Canadian equivalent to UPS Ground), or 2) UPS "Worldwide Expedited" or "Express" (equivalent to UPS Air) Shipments to Canada are subject to Canadian import duties, sales taxes (general and provincial). and UPS brokerage fees. Note that only "Canada Standard" shipments are subject to UPS brokerage fees (see 2nd table below). UPS "Expedited" & "Express" are not. Identi-Tape does NOT collect taxes or brokerage fees in advance. In some cases, the sum of Canadian taxes and UPS brokerage fees may approach the value of the tape ordered.Please review the TWO tables below to help you anticipate the amount of duties, taxes, and fees you will have to pay UPS to take delivery of your package. It is YOUR responsibility to know the amount of these taxes and duties. Identi-Tape will NOT accept return of refused packages and will NOT issue refunds on orders to Canada. Unfortunately, we have been burned by those who declined to pay the taxes and refused their packages, causing us to eat the costs of shipping and brokerage fees both ways! This is why we have had to adopt this rigid policy. WHEN TO PAY: When your package enters customs in Canada, UPS will call you and tell you what duties, taxes and brokerage fees are due. They will ask you then if you want to pay them with a credit card in advance. If you don't, you'll have to pay an additional "COD" fee upon delivery.
