The flexibility and price efficiency of this option makes it preferred for businesses not requiring the full capacity of usual 20ft or 40ft containers.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Example:<\/strong> For instance, a furniture business in Seattle that needs to send a small batch of chairs to a retailer in Toronto may opt for LCL shipment over a full container load. Here, they avoid paying for unused space yet ensure a safe and timely delivery.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Cost Implications:<\/strong> Pricing for LCL freight includes charges based on volume, leading to cost efficiencies for fewer goods. However, remember that sharing a container might increase handling fees due to multiple shipments' various processes operating within one container. To overcome this, get an inclusive LCL shipping quote that clarifies all costs upfront.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-3264-8-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-3264-8-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"14\" ><div class=\"custom-colors featured-widget panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-3264-8-1-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FCL_Full_Container_Load\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #920d12\">FCL: Full Container Load<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Definition:<\/strong> FCL (Full Container Load) shipping is when <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">a single exporter<\/span><\/strong> books a whole container, either a 20\u2019ft or 40\u2019ft, to transport goods.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">When to Use:<\/strong> FCL is particularly beneficial when your cargo measures <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">more than 13\/14\/15 CBM<\/span><\/strong>, meaning you harness the container's total space. It offers cost-effectiveness for high volume shipments due to the flat rate per container. Additionally, since the container is sealed from origin to destination, it ensures enhanced safety for your goods.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Example:<\/strong> Consider a manufacturing firm exporting machinery parts from Dallas to Toronto. Their cargo occupies a whole 40'ft container. Choosing FCL they guarantee the security of their goods and potentially save costs versus multiple LCL (Less than Container Load) shipments.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Cost Implications:<\/strong> While FCL might initially seem expensive, it becomes cheaper per CBM (cubic meter) as the volume of your shipment increases. For an exact cost breakdown, approach a freight forwarder or shipping line for an FCL shipping quote. Remember, the rate could vary based on the route, the season, and the container size.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-3264-9\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-3264-9\" ><div id=\"pgc-3264-9-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-3264-9-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"15\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-3264-9-0-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Unlock hassle-free shipping<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Experience the ease of shipping with DocShipper, your dedicated freight forwarder making cargo transfers between the US and Canada hassle-free.

You simply weigh all your shipped items along with their packaging, including any pallets, in kilograms.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #339966\">For instance, if your shipment along with the packaging weighs 100 kg, there's no conversion to pounds necessary as 100 kg is roughly equal to 220 lbs.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Volumetric weight, also called dimensional weight, works a bit differently. It's a calculation that air carriers use to account for the space a package occupies in relation to its actual weight. The calculation in air cargo services follows this formula:<br \/>\nVolumetric weight (kg) = Length(cm) x Width(cm) x Height(cm) \/ 6000<br \/>\nFor example, if you're shipping a box that's 100 cm long, 100 cm wide, and 100 cm high, then the volumetric weight of your shipment would be roughly 167 kg, which converts to approximately 367 lbs.<\/p>\n<p>In Express Air Freight services, the calculation is similar. However, instead of 6000, the divisor used is 5000:<br \/>\nVolumetric weight (kg) = Length(cm) x Width(cm) x Height(cm) \/ 5000<br \/>\nSo, using the same box dimensions, Express Air Freight services would equate the volumetric weight to be 200 kg which translates to around 440 lbs.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to freight charges, keep in mind that carriers use these calculations to optimize their cargo capacity. They will charge based on either the actual weight (gross weight) or the dimensional weight (volumetric weight), whichever is greater. Therefore, understanding these weights is crucial to predict shipping costs and make economical decisions about packaging and product sizing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div

It's ideal if you're moving smaller, less-than-full truckloads between the US and Canada, typically when your goods measure <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">less than 13-16 CBM (cubic meters)<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine you're a furniture company transporting a small collection of designer chairs. The volumetric space of chairs wrapped and ready for transport might be around 10 CBM. This volume would make your shipment a good fit for LTL freight, as it is under the 13-16 CBM range.<\/p>\n<p>When to favor LTL:<br \/>\n- You're shipping smaller quantities of goods<br \/>\n- Your freight is less than 13-16 CBM<br \/>\n- Frequent and regular shipments are needed<br \/>\n- Cost-effectiveness is a priority over speed<br \/>\n- Requirement of less space, reducing the environmental footprint<\/p>\n<p>This smart shipping method allows you to share the transport costs with others, making LTL shipment not only space-saving, but also cost-effective.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3264-19-1-3\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-last-child\" data-index=\"45\" ><div class=\"custom-colors panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-3264-19-1-3\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FTL_Full_Truck_Load\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #920d12\">FTL: Full Truck Load<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Full Truck Load shipping, often referred to as FTL freight, is a method of transport where your goods occupy the whole cargo space of a truck. If you're shipping large quantities, usually <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">more than 13-15 CBM<\/span><\/strong> - think of a small bedroom filled top to bottom with your cargo - it's a practical option.<\/p>\n<p>Let's envision you're a furniture manufacturer in the U.S looking to transport fifty 0.3 CBM chairs across the border to Canada. It's efficient to book an entire truck for your FTL shipment, ensuring your goods reach the destination safely, swiftly, and without getting mixed up with other cargos.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some instances when choosing FTL might be the best route for you:<\/p>\n<p>- Your cargo is time-sensitive and needs faster transit<br \/>\n- The goods you're shipping are high-value and require additional security<br \/>\n- Your shipment is larger, crossing that 13-15 CBM threshold<br \/>\n- You need to ship a fragile or special handling cargo that can't be consolidated with others<\/p>\n<p>Knowing which option to choose rests on understanding your specific shipping needs.

These include the<strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\"> country of origin<\/span><\/strong>, the <strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">nature of your product<\/span><\/strong> defined by the HS Code, the <strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">Customs Value<\/span><\/strong> determined by the total product cost, <strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">insurance<\/span><\/strong>, and freight, and any relevant <strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">tariff rate, taxes, or other fees<\/span><\/strong>. For any product crossing borders, nuances in these factors can significantly impact your final costs. Kick-starting this process involves identifying the specific country where the goods were manufactured or produced, thus establishing the 'country of origin'. This pivotal step sets the foundation for the following factors and ultimately drives the duties and taxes you'll need to account for in your <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">shipping budget<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3264-24-0-2\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"61\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">Step 1 - Identify the Country of Origin<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Knowing the '<strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">Country of Origin<\/span><\/strong>' is key to streamline your import process from the US to Canada. First, it determines the tariff codes that apply to your goods. Second, it informs about potential <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">duties and taxes<\/span> <\/strong>associated with these goods. Third, understanding<strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\"> trade agreements<\/span><\/strong> between the two countries, like the <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\"><a style=\"color: #920d12\" href=\"https:\/\/www.international.gc.ca\/trade-commerce\/trade-agreements-accords-commerciaux\/agr-acc\/cusma-aceum\/index.aspx?lang=eng\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Canada-US-Mexico Agreement<\/a><\/span><\/strong> (CUSMA), could lead to potential tariff reductions or eliminations. Fourth, specific import restrictions might apply to your goods based on their origin. Finally, it simplifies the <strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">paperwork<\/span><\/strong>, helping you sail through customs without a hitch.<\/p>\n<p>CUSMA provides preferential treatment to goods originating from member countries, resulting in <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">duty-free<\/span><\/strong> access for most of your consignment. Just ensure you're aware of the rules of origin in this agreement to make the most of these benefits.<\/p>\n<p>Import restrictions? Certain goods, like dairy products or poultry, might face special quotas or licenses. So, say you're an agribusiness - make sure you don't land in a pickle by properly checking these!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3264-24-0-3\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"62\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">Step 2 - Find the HS Code of your product<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">Harmonized System Code<\/span><\/strong>, better known as the HS Code, is a six-figure international standard used to categorize and define products. <strong>It aids in identifying the rates of duty, statistics, and other important details in the international trade context. It's crucial for you as a shipper to know your product's HS Code as it\u2019s key for the customs authorities to determine what the product is and calculate the import duties accordingly.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you embark on the mission to find your product's HS Code, your supplier could be your main ally. They import the goods, are familiar with them, and ought to be well aware of the relative regulations, including the HS code for their products.<\/p>\n<p>But what happens if the direct source - your supplier - can't provide you with the HS Code? Don't worry; we've got you covered. Let's give you a simple step-by-step process:<\/p>\n<p>1. Start by using an HS lookup tool, like the <strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\"><a style=\"color: #0e465f\" href=\"https:\/\/hts.usitc.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Harmonized Tariff Schedule<\/a><\/span><\/strong>.<br \/>\n2. Input your product's name into the search bar.<br \/>\n3. The HS Code will typically be in the Heading\/Subheading column.<\/p>\n<p>Take note, accuracy is of utmost importance here. Supplying a wrong HS Code might lead to undesirable outcomes such as shipping delays and even potential fines due to incorrectly declared goods. Be vigilant and take the time to ensure its accuracy.<\/p>\n<p>Here's an infographic showing you how to read an HS code.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3264-24-0-4\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"63\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2364 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/docshipper.us\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/07\/HS-CODE-VERSION-ANGLAISE-e1690549142132.png\" alt=\"hs code finder\" width=\"1024\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/docshipper.us\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/07\/HS-CODE-VERSION-ANGLAISE-e1690549142132.png 1024w, https:\/\/docshipper.us\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/07\/HS-CODE-VERSION-ANGLAISE-e1690549142132-300x143.png 300w, https:\/\/docshipper.us\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/07\/HS-CODE-VERSION-ANGLAISE-e1690549142132-768x366.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3264-24-0-5\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"64\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">Step 3 - Calculate the Customs Value<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Understanding '<strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">Customs Value<\/span><\/strong>' can be tough, but it's vital for your shipping process. This isn't simply the price tag on your goods; it's a combination of three cost categories.<\/p>\n<p>First, the price of your goods as agreed in your sales contract. Let's say you're shipping a batch of Sport Goggles valued at $5000.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, the cost of international shipping to bring the goggles from the U.S. to Canada\u2014perhaps another $1500.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the insurance cost for that journey. For our goggles, an average insurance premium might be 1% of their value, adding on $50.<\/p>\n<p>Add it all together\u2014you get 'Customs Value'. In this instance, it's $5000+$1500+$50 =$6550. This is the <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">CIF (Cost, Insurance, Freight)<\/span><\/strong> value you'll declare to Canadian Customs. Understanding this can make your cross-border shipping process smoother and more predictable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3264-24-0-6\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"65\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">Step 4 - Figure out the applicable Import Tariff<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>An import tariff, essentially a tax, is applied on goods that come into a country from across international borders. For Canada, this is usually denoted in terms of <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">Customs Duties<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Now, finding the applicable tariff for your goods isn\u2019t as daunting as it seems. You'll rely on the <strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\"><a style=\"color: #0e465f\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tariffinder.ca\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Canada Tariff Finder<\/a><\/span><\/strong> , an online tool provided by the Canadian government. For instance, if you're importing teddy bears (HS code 950300) from the US to Canada:<\/p>\n<p>1. Input the HS code (950300) into the tool along with the country of origin (US).<br \/>\n2. The tool will provide the tariff rate, say 5%.<\/p>\n<p>To calculate the import duties, include your total cost of goods, insurance, and freight (CIF). If your CIF is, for instance, $10,000, your import duty will be $10,000 0.05 (5%) = $500. And voila, that's your import duty, which also forms a part of your import costs.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, regardless of the confusion around international trade, understanding import taxes can give you an edge, making your venture into the Canadian market a smoother ride.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3264-24-0-7\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"66\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">Step 5 - Consider other Import Duties and Taxes<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In addition to standard <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">tariff rates<\/span><\/strong>, your goods may also be subject to other<strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\"> import duties and taxes<\/span><\/strong>, depending on the specifics of the product and its <strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">country of origin<\/span><\/strong>. For example, you might find yourself facing <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">excise duties<\/span><\/strong>, often levied on goods like tobacco and alcohol. <strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">Anti-dumping taxes<\/span><\/strong> are another possibility, protecting Canadian businesses from unfairly low-priced foreign imports.<\/p>\n<p>It's also vital to consider the <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">Value Added Tax (VAT)<\/span><\/strong>. In Canada, this is known as the <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">Goods and Services Tax<\/span> <\/strong>(GST), which standard rate is <strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">5%<\/span><\/strong>. Applied to the total cost of your goods (including transport), this tax can influence your final import costs significantly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here's a simplified example (note: rates might vary): If you're importing goods worth $10,000, with a shipment cost of $2,000, your GST would be 5% of $12,000, i.e., $600.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Remember, complexities abound when importing goods, and each case may have unique duty requirements. Consider consulting with a customs broker or professional trade advisor to ensure compliance and avoid unforeseen costs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3264-24-0-8\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"67\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3><span style=\"color: #0e465f\">Step 6 - Calculate the Customs Duties<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In Step 6 - Calculate the <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">Customs Duties<\/span><\/strong>, understanding how customs duties are calculated is key to successful shipping of goods from the US to Canada. <strong>The formula adds the customs value (the price you paid for the items) to any applicable anti-dumping taxes, and VAT (Value Added Tax), if applicable.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now let's consider these scenarios:<\/p>\n<p>1. Suppose you ship machinery valued at $5000 to Canada with no VAT. The calculated customs duty would solely depend on the customs value. Let's say the machinery attracts a 5% customs duty rate. Your customs duty then would be <strong>$5000 5\/100 = $250<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>2. If the same machinery is shipped with a VAT rate of 15%, then the customs duty and VAT combined would be<strong> ($5000 5\/100) + ($5000 15\/100) = $250 + $750 = $1000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>3. Now, add the presence of anti-dumping taxes and an Excise Duty of, say, 10%. The total charges then become <strong>($5000 5\/100) + ($5000 15\/100) + ($5000 10\/100) = $250 + $750 + $500 = $1500<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Customs fees can be complex, but rest assured, we at <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">DocShipper<\/span> <\/strong>are here to help.

Don't ignore the Bill of Lading - it's your golden ticket in international shipping. Think of it as the legal proof of your transaction \u2013 it shows what you're shipping, from where, and where it's going. It also marks that critical shift when the goods go from your hands to the transport's. And no worries if you're shipping by air - that's where the Airway Bill (AWB) does the same job!<\/p>\n<p>Here's a tip: go for an electronic, or telex release. This digital version saves you time and reduces paperwork. So, if you want to smooth your shipping experience, remember this keyword: Bill of Lading. That's how you ensure your goods cross borders without a hitch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3264-27-0-2\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"74\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Packing_List\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #920d12\">Packing List<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Think of your Packing List as the fundamental guide to your shipment from the US to Canada. It's your responsibility as a shipper to accurately detail what's included in your freight. Each item, its quantities, descriptions, and the material of manufacture should be meticulously listed. Factor in the weight and dimensions too; it helps customs officials verify your declarations easily and speed up clearances. Picture this \u2013 a consignment of vintage automobile parts traveling by sea. Without a precise Packing List, you risk delays and added costs. So whether you're shipping boutique wines through air freight or furniture via ocean freight, precision with your Packing List is non-negotiable. It's the backbone of smooth US to Canada shipping.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3264-27-0-3\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"75\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Commercial_Invoice\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #920d12\">Commercial Invoice<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The Commercial Invoice is your ticket to getting your goods across the border smoothly. It's the customs declaration indicating the product's value, description, and the identity of the buyer and seller - think of it as your parcel's passport! Inaccuracies can lead to delays or denial at the port of entry, so triple-check details, making sure they align with your packing list and bill of lading, for example. An extra pro-tip - consider harmonized system codes for the products; they help identify tariffs and expedite customs clearance. Don't just view it as paperwork - it's a powerful tool that can help streamline your US-Canada shipping process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3264-27-0-4\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-last-child\" data-index=\"76\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Certificate_of_Origin\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #920d12\">Certificate of Origin<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>When shipping goods from the US to Canada, or vice versa, you'll need a Certificate of Origin (CO). This doc identifies the goods' country of manufacture - think of it as your shipment's passport. Why bother? Simple. The CO can secure preferential customs duty rates under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). For example, let's say you're exporting leather goods manufactured in the US to Canada. With a correctly completed CO, you could zip past standard duties. Bottom line - ensuring the CO's accuracy can save your business big bucks on customs fees. Remember, in international shipping, it pays to get the details right!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-3264-28\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-3264-28\" ><div id=\"pgc-3264-28-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-3264-28-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"77\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-3264-28-0-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Get Started with DocShipper<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Navigating through customs between the US and Canada can be complex.
