Canadian Customs

Tradesmen Cigar will comply with all customs declaration documentation laws for tobacco shipments from the US to Canada. Tradesmen Cigar will not misstate or under-declare the contents or value of any package. Any customs duties, taxes, and all affiliated fees imposed by Canada must be paid by the recipient you the buyer.

Tradesmen Cigar will record the actual cigar count and NET weight of the cigars in your shipment on the customs form. This extra step will record the accurate weight for the Canadian Customs officials to accurately calculate any excise taxes based on the total cigar weight and not the weight of any wooden boxes or packing material. Additionally, Tradesmen Cigar will include a detailed packing sheet inside the package as well as one in a shipping envelop affixed to the outside of your shipment; these additional steps may reduce your fees and may prevent or reduce the time the package is held in customs for inspection.
