E-Commerce Freight

E-Commerce Small Batch Shipping

The 21 KG range is typical for small e-commerce restock orders and initial trial shipments. Air freight is the standard choice here — it offers the best balance of cost and speed, and most DDP air channels accept shipments from 21 KG upward. This weight falls into the LCL (Less-than-Container-Load) air category.

  • Standard minimum for air freight DDP channels (most require 21 KG+)
  • Common for: phone cases, accessories, clothing, cosmetics
  • Amazon FBA replenishment orders at this weight use air for speed
  • Declare accurate HS codes to avoid customs delays in Canada

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to ship from China to Canada?

Current rates for shipping from China to Canada start at USD 3.83/KG via Sea DDP UPS. For 21 KG, the estimated total is approximately USD 80, with all duties paid under DDP. Final landed cost depends on the GST 5% (+ provincial PST/HST); duty 0–18% applied by Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).

What duties and taxes apply when importing into Canada?

Imports into Canada are assessed by Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). The applicable regime is: GST 5% (+ provincial PST/HST); duty 0–18%. The duty-free / de-minimis position is CAD 20 (CAD 40 gifts; CAD 150 duty-free under CUSMA courier). Under our DDP service these charges are pre-paid and included in the per-KG price, so there is nothing to settle on arrival.

What documents are required for customs clearance in Canada?

Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) typically requires: (1) commercial invoice with HS codes and declared value; (2) packing list with weights and dimensions; (3) bill of lading or air waybill; (4) certificate of origin (may lower duty); and (5) any product-specific certification (ISED for radio devices; bilingual EN/FR labelling). Under DDP we prepare and file these for you.

Can I track my shipment from China to Canada?

Yes. Air shipments to Canada get an air waybill (AWB) trackable within 24 hours of departure; sea shipments are tracked by bill-of-lading through the carrier portal. We push status at key milestones: departure, arrival at the gateway, clearance by Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), and final delivery.

What certifications are required to import into Canada?

For regulated goods entering Canada, plan for: ISED for radio devices; bilingual EN/FR labelling. Missing conformity paperwork is the most common cause of clearance holds with Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), so confirm requirements for your HS code before the cargo leaves China.

How is chargeable weight calculated for Canada shipments?

We compare actual gross weight against volumetric weight (L×W×H ÷ 6000 for air) and charge whichever is greater, rounded up to the next kilogram. For 21 KG this matters most when cargo is light but bulky — consolidating cartons can drop you into a cheaper bracket.

Which ports and airports handle China shipments to Canada?

Sea freight to Canada typically routes through Vancouver, Prince Rupert, Montreal, while air freight clears via YVR (Vancouver), YYZ (Toronto), YUL (Montreal). We pick the gateway with the best onward delivery time to your final address and price it into the DDP rate.

In what currency are rates to Canada quoted and paid?

Freight to Canada is quoted and invoiced in USD; the local currency on the destination side is CAD. Payment is typically due before departure (T/T or PayPal), and because it's DDP you settle the full landed cost once — no destination collect charges.
