Ship to Canada in 7 Days
Section 321 is gone. Tariffs are up 25%. Your Canadian customers are paying $15-25 in surprise duties per order. There's a better way - pre-position inventory in Canada and fulfill domestically.
The Cross-Border Problem
Shipping per-parcel from the US to Canada is costing you customers and margin
Slow Delivery
Cross-border shipments take 5-14 business days to reach Canadian customers. In the age of 2-day delivery, that kills conversion rates and drives cart abandonment.
Surprise Duties
Since Section 321 elimination in August 2025, every parcel faces $15-25 USD brokerage fees. Add 25% tariffs and your customer gets an unexpected bill at the door.
Expensive Returns
Cross-border returns are a nightmare. Customers pay international shipping, face customs paperwork, and wait weeks for refunds. Most just keep the product and leave a bad review.
