Need Help with Customs Duty Fees International Shipping

Gammzy98 · #1 02-09-2018

Hey everyone, I have been trying to find what the duty free amounts are for different countries, as I have started to ship internationally. This is what I have so far based on what I looked up (assuming its up to date):

USA: $800 or less duty free
Australia: $1000 or less duty free

Does anyone know what the amount is for Canada, United Kingdom, and Germany? I had a few people ask to declare a low amount, but since I am doing somewhat high volume (couple hundred shipments), I really do not feel comfortable doing that. The items I sell are around $100. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Bump. If anyone has any info on this would greatly appreciate it.

Any shipment valued at $20 or more is subjected to Canada's GST (import) duty. Canada's tax threshold is so low you can't really get around it.

I can't comment on the other two countries you asked about but I'm sure the info is online.
