Shipping to Canada from the US

Are you looking to see how you can shop from any US website and get delivery in Canada? Look no further than us!

With a Forward.me account, it’s quick and easy to buy and ship items from the USA to Canada.

Here’s how we work:

● Join Forward.me and receive your own US shipping address.

● Shop any American retailer online, from Amazon to Ralph Lauren, and anything in between.

● We’ll let you know when your parcels have arrived at our warehouse.

● If you’re hoping to consolidate packages, we’ll store these for up to 180 days and then combine in the smallest number of packages.

● Pick how you want to have your items shipped, and we’ll ship from the USA to Canada in 1-3 days.

Duties and taxes only apply on shipments where the value is higher than the threshold value (sometimes known as Canada’s de minimis value). Depending on your territory or region, or the type of good, there may be some other service fees or taxes.

$20 CAD is the de minimis value for Canadian duty and tax, as well as the USPS de minimis value for duty and tax. This excludes alcohol and tobacco.

Duties and taxes are NOT included in your shipping charges, so you may be required to pay a fee upon delivery.

• De minimis Value for Duty: 20 CAD*
• De minimis Value for Tax: 20 CAD*

• USPS De minimis Value for Duty: 20 CAD*
• USPS De minimis Value for Tax: 20 CAD*

When you choose to ship with Forward.me, we'll quickly process and deliver your packages.

Our average shipping times from the US to Canada are:

Depending on when you enter your shipping request, and where you’re based in Canada, you may find that your parcels are received much faster.

There are some goods which are legally not allowed to be shipped between the US and Canada. These restrictions exist alongside Canadian import laws, as well as US export laws.
