FAQ
Q: What is a Canadian Business Number (BN) and do I need one to import?
A: Yes. To import commercial goods into Canada, businesses generally need an Importer Business Number (BN) with an active Import/Export (RM) account issued by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) for customs clearance and tax reporting.
Q: How are GST and duties calculated and paid for Canadian shipments?
A: Duties are calculated based on the product's HS code and country of origin, while the 5% Goods and Services Tax (GST) is assessed on the duty-paid value of the goods. Under standard terms, the importer pays these directly to CBSA/broker; under LDP terms, these are settled through our service.
Q: Can shipments from multiple different factories in China be consolidated into one batch to Canada?
A: Yes. We can collect cargo from multiple suppliers, pool them at our origin warehouse, and consolidate them into a single FCL container or unified air/LCL shipment before export.
Q: What happens if a delivery location in Canada does not have a loading dock?
A: If delivering to a business address or commercial warehouse without a loading dock, a truck equipped with a tail-lift (liftgate) must be requested in advance to ensure safe unloading at the curb or ground-level door.
Q: How are special cargo types or oversized items handled?
A: Oversized, heavy, or non-standard cargo is reviewed individually prior to booking to ensure appropriate equipment (such as flat racks, open-top containers, or specialized trucks) is secured for safe transit.
Q: Can shipment status be tracked while moving from China to Canada?
A: Yes. Real-time milestones and tracking updates are provided throughout the journey, covering factory pickup, export departure, vessel/flight arrival, customs clearance status, and final inland dispatch.
