❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How long does Sea DDP UPS Zone 4 FBA from China to Canada take?
Sea freight on this route runs about 25–45 calendar days door-to-door, plus roughly 3–6 days of clearance/dwell once it reaches the gateway. All times include customs clearance under DDP terms.
What duties and taxes apply when importing into Canada?
Clearance is handled by Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). The regime is: GST 5% + provincial; duty 0–18%, with a de-minimis position of CAD 20 (CAD 150 courier under CUSMA). Under DDP these are pre-paid, so nothing is collected on arrival.
Which ports or airports does this route use into Canada?
Sea cargo to Canada clears through Vancouver, Prince Rupert, Montreal; air freight clears via YVR (Vancouver), YYZ (Toronto), YUL. We route through whichever gateway gives the fastest onward delivery to your address and build it into the DDP price.
When does capacity tighten on the China–Canada lane?
Space and rates tighten around Aug–Oct, plus the China-side windows of Chinese New Year (Jan/Feb) and Golden Week (early Oct). Book 1–2 weeks earlier in these periods.
What certification is needed to import into Canada?
For regulated goods, plan for: ISED for radio devices; bilingual EN/FR labelling. Missing conformity paperwork is the most common clearance hold with Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), so confirm requirements for your HS code before shipping.
What documents are required for customs clearance in Canada?
Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) typically requires a commercial invoice with HS codes, a packing list, the bill of lading/air waybill, a certificate of origin (may lower duty), and any product certification (ISED for radio devices; bilingual EN/FR labelling). We file these under DDP.
