jackrabbit 0 Posted January 26, 2015 in duty cost to Canada Can anyone share there experience with importing UM2 to Canada? :cool: Please specify distributor, shipper, and duty charged. So far, I have only be able to established that Makershed charges $779 U.S. for pre-paid VAT on UM2 to Ontario, which works out to 18% duty after subtracting 13% HST for Ontario. On the other hand, dutycalculator.com lists the import duty on UM2 to Canada at 0%. A related question is whether there really should be a duty on UM2 to Canada. Several posters on this forum have stated that there is Not a duty to the U.S., although there may be a minor importation charge, if they order direct from Ultimaker. Hopefully, we can clarify these issues so that future purchasers of UM2 can avoid unnecessary duties up to 20% or at least know in advance what to expect. Alternatively, a Canadian distributor may be needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tinydancer 0 Posted January 27, 2015 in duty cost to Canada I bought mine from Dynamism, who used Fedex to ship my UM2. The shipping cost was about $180 if I recall and the VAT around $380. You can calculate it here. http://www.canadacustomer.fedex.com/ca_english/customsguide/calculatedutytax.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
