Cost of Postage From the US to Canada

If you are sending a package to Canada, you should be aware of how much the postage will cost. Postage rates are different for Canadian mail compared to those for US mail. The first step in figuring out the postage cost for your package is to calculate the weight of your package. You can do this using a kitchen scale or an office scale. Once you have an accurate weight, you can get an idea of what your package will cost in Canada.

USPS offers flat rates for shipping packages to Canada. This flat rate is for a 2-kg package, while other carriers use calculators to determine the price. Generally speaking, the flat rate is the best option when sending packages to Canada. However, you should also consider the cost of customs and duties, which are based on the product category. Depending on the product category, you can expect to pay higher fees if you are sending fashion or health and beauty items. The same goes for home appliances, decor, and luggage.

If you want to send a parcel to Canada from the US, you should be aware of the different taxes that may be applicable. For instance, Canada imposes a Goods and Services Tax, Harmonized Tax, and Provincial Sales Tax. This means that you should communicate all applicable taxes with your Canadian clients before sending their packages.
