For USA Customers - Tariff Implications

Tariffs (varying %) started on March 4th 12:01am for all goods imported into the USA from various countries including Canada. This is at the direction of the current US government.

Please note that none of our product is sourced from China but are either sourced from Canada, Europe, UK or South Africa.

Our understanding is that at this time, because of the countries of origin, there is an addendum that still allows for the personal exemption, which is $800.00 USD. So there should be no tariff on your order for items purchased at our online store. This may change at a moments notice.

If and when this exemption is removed this is how your order will be processed by the US Border Patrol.....

All shipments to the USA will already have harmonized codes and a country of origin tagged to the product. This will facilitate the application and payment of tariffs if applicable. USA customers will be responsible for the payment of these tariffs as it is implemented by US Border control and not Canada. We, as the supplier of the product from Canada are not responsible for the processing, implementation and collection of these taxes.

We will be using the USPS service and they will collect, from you the customer, the applicable tariff for the US government. Please note that this is a tax on the American consumer and is paid by the American consumer. If you should refuse to pay the tariff, the parcel will be disposed of by USBP and we will not be able to refund your purchase.

There MAY BE a delay in your receiving your parcel due to additional processing by the USA border control.

This whole matter is quite fluid and so updates will be posted here.

~ Thank you for your patience and understanding and if you have any questions about this matter please do not hesitate in calling or emailing us.
