Canadian Taxes, Duties and Customs FAQ

If you order more than one item, the shipping rates may be incorrect.  Contact us for more information.

COSTS TO SHIP TO CANADA
Costs associated with shipping to Canada can be confusing.  Here is a breakdown to give you an idea of what to expect when you order a product from us. (All prices shown below are in US dollars.)

ORDERING
When you order a product from us, on the checkout page, you will be charged a shipping price.  

We will ship your the package by FedEx (we normally only ship USPS if it is a small item such as a set of number magnets.) 

UPON RECEIPT OF THE PACKAGE
When the package arrives, you will receive a bill from FedEx.  This bill is not for additional shipping charges.  It is for charges such as duties, taxes and fees that FedEx collects and remits to the the Canadian government, the customs office, etc.  

CHARGES YOU MOST LIKELY WILL SEE ON YOUR BILL
1) Clearance Entry Fee*: 17 CAD - 54 CAD 
2) HST taxes**:  The HST rate is 15% in all participating provinces except Ontario, where it is 13%.
3) Disbursement fee***: 2% for every $100 in value

 

*Clearance Entry Fee: This is the fee that FedEx charges to arrange the clearance services - processing the paperwork required by the Canada Customs and Border Protection.

Generally the Clearance Entry Fee starts at about 17CAD for a package valued at 50CAD, to 32CAD for a package valued at 200CAD

**HST taxes:  We do not collect Sales Tax that your Province charges.  FedEx collects it and remits it to your government

***Dispersement Fee:  FedEx pays the Duty and Tax charges on your behalf to ensure they can deliver your shipment as quickly as possible.

 

*Northern Canada 
Northern Canada provinces are subject to Fedex’s Northern Canada Surcharge: an additional charge applies for packages destined to the Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut and Labrador. This surcharge applies to postal codes including, but not limited to, A0K, A0P-A0R, A2V and X0A-Y9Z

Good not great

Quality of material is fantastic. The board we received was not cut into a perfect rectangle so it looks off a bit. Not worth the effort of returning but also not the quality of craftmanship I was hoping for.

love it!

I really like how it write so fine

Moving n Shaking Whiteboard

Love this board and the fact I could choose the titles I wanted to have!

Great board

Works well and bonus to be able to customize

Board looks great and I'm looking forward to putting it to good use.

Beautiful calendar

UPDATED REVIEW: I have received a new marker from Girl Friday. They contacted me right away when they read the difficulty I had writing on the calendar. Definitely a game changer. I now can read what I write and makes it a complete package. Thank you Girl Friday!

The calendar itself is beautiful. Great quality. I have been having a very difficult time finding dry erase markers that are legible on this acrylic. Not even the black one that Girl Friday sent worked well. All markers appear very light so I've had to resort to post its to stick on to the calendar.

Love this Board!

Really love this board! It came very quickly. Great product.. Loving It...

Love the board... markers not so much

Loved the look of the board on my fridge! It's the perfect size and we use it all the time. We also ordered a set of chalk markers. These take forever to load the paint into the tip, and just after about a week, they stopped working altogether.

Buy It

I absolutely found a board that is customized with my brand and helps me stay on top of my sales. Glad I saw the marketing for it on Facebook. I have told my other colleagues to make the purchase.

Love it!

This board is just perfect!
I love being able to track my data in such an organized fashion. Being able to personalize the board was the cherry on top!

Horse Barn Schedule Board

I ordered a custom 48” x 36” business board. I was able to send a spreadsheet with my requirements and worked through several revisions. It was delivered and looks amazing! This will be used by this non-profit for many years. It is durable and was easy to mount. I am very happy with the customer service and the delivery. Thank you, girl Friday!

Love it. Second order from the company.

It was exactly as expected
