It depends on whether your order contains CUSMA-qualifying products or not. The majority of our products are made in Canada and qualify for duty-free entry into the United States under the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA/USMCA). Orders containing only CUSMA-qualifying products will NOT be charged U.S. import duties or tariffs.

Americans do not pay customs fees on CUSMA-qualifying products from Canada. However, products sourced from outside North America are subject to a 35% tariff as of August 1, 2025. Whether you pay customs fees depends entirely on the origin of the products in your order.

CUSMA-qualifying products are goods that meet the rules of origin under the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement. These are products that are wholly obtained, produced, or manufactured in Canada, the United States, or Mexico with sufficient North American content. We provide CUSMA certification of origin for all qualifying shipments to ensure duty-free clearance through U.S. customs.

Some of our products are sourced from outside North America and do not meet CUSMA rules of origin. As of August 1, 2025, these non-qualifying goods are subject to a 35% U.S. tariff when crossing the border from Canada into the United States. You will be responsible for paying these applicable import duties and tariffs at the time of delivery or customs clearance.

We clearly identify each product's country of origin in our product descriptions. Look for this information on the product page before purchasing - if made in Canada, its CUSMA-compliant. If you're unsure whether your specific order will be subject to tariffs, please Contact us and we'll provide confirmation.

If your order contains both CUSMA-qualifying and non-qualifying products, tariffs will only apply to the non-qualifying items. The duty-free benefit applies to the CUSMA-qualifying products, while the 35% tariff applies only to products sourced from outside North America. Each item is assessed separately by customs.

The carrier (such as UPS, FedEx, or USPS) or a customs broker will collect these fees on behalf of U.S. Customs and Border Protection. You'll typically pay these charges at the time of delivery or receive a bill shortly after delivery. The exact process depends on your carrier.

No. As of August 29, 2025, the U.S. has eliminated the duty-free de minimis exemption for shipments from Canada valued at US$800 or less. All commercial shipments now require proper customs clearance and payment of applicable duties on non-CUSMA products, regardless of the order value.

The type of product (organic, conventional, etc.) doesn't determine tariffs. What matters is where the product was made or manufactured. Products made in Canada qualify for duty-free entry under CUSMA. Products sourced from outside North America are subject to the 35% tariff.

Canadian customers may be responsible for GST/HST and any applicable provincial taxes on orders as determined by Canadian customs regulations, regardless of where the products originate. This applies to both domestic and imported goods. Taxes are calculated based on the destination province.

Yes. Customs regulations and tariff rates are subject to change based on government trade policies. While we strive to provide accurate and current information, final duty assessments are always determined by the customs authority of the destination country. We recommend checking with us before placing large orders if you have concerns about potential tariff costs.

Contact us before purchasing if you want to confirm whether tariffs will apply to your specific order. We can review your items and provide an estimate of potential duty charges for non-CUSMA products. This helps you understand the total landed cost before completing your purchase.
