Shipments to Canada

Note: We require your Canadian SIN or BN in order to ship. Please include them in your order comments or we will have to place your order on a shipping hold until they are received.

At The Menu Shoppe, we believe in honesty and transparency with our customers. Buying online from the United States for shipment to Canada has never been cheap. There's the cost of shipping, GST/HST, and customs duties on orders over CAD$150.

On top of that, we are now facing 25% tariffs on many goods crossing the border. The specific items that are subject to tariffs could potentially change day by day. The best we can hope for is some eventual stability, but for now these tariffs will greatly increase the all-in total cost of your order.

When you order from The Menu Shoppe (or any other U.S. company), you'll pay the UPS shipping charge up front. However, when the boxes reach the border the Canada Border Services Agency is going to levy taxes, duties, and tariffs -- which you will have to pay through UPS before the package is released for delivery.

In most cases, there will be 5% GST/HST (or a higher PST amount that is often able to be rebated) plus duties, depending on the item. Historically, many of our products have been duty free under the USMCA, but this is subject to change as laws and regulations continue to evolve.

As of today, all of our products are potentially subject to tariffs. At the time of this post, all products which are 100% vinyl (like our All-Clear covers) or wood (like some of our table stands) seem to be exempt. But with how frequently the rules can change, we're not guaranteeing anything. The CBSA will have the final say when reviewing our shipments. If tariffs are in effect, you should expect to pay on any items containing your logo, or which are made with cardboard, paper, leather, or leatherette (as most of our casebound products are).

Tariffs are charged based on what the rules are on the day the package reaches the border, not what they are on the day you place your order -- and that means what's true today may not be true when your order ships.
