Demystifying Import Costs: Argo Customs’ CBSA Duty Calculator

Importing goods into Canada comes with its fair share of considerations, one of the most significant being the assessment of duty and tax. At Argo Customs Brokers, we recognize the importance of transparency and efficiency in this process, which is why we’ve developed the CBSA Duty and Calculator – a tool designed to empower importers with accurate estimations.

The CBSA Duty and Tax Calculator offered by Argo Customs is a user-friendly solution that simplifies the estimation of duty and tax amounts. By inputting essential details like the 10-digit HS code, country of origin, and value of the goods, the calculator swiftly calculates the total amount of duty and tax you can expect to pay upon importing. The HS code, a classification code for imported goods, is easily found by referencing the table conveniently located on the form.

What makes this tool invaluable is its accuracy and accessibility. Whether you’re a business involved in commercial importations or an individual undertaking a personal import, the calculator tailors its calculations accordingly. For commercial importations, a Customs tax of 5% (GST) is levied atop the duty across all provinces. On the other hand, individual importations are taxed based on the province of residence. A significant advantage of the CBSA Duty and Tax Calculator is its ability to streamline the importing process and empower importers with informed decisions. Additionally, some goods, such as basic groceries, are zero-rated and therefore tax-free, further enhancing the versatility of the calculator.
