We ship Internationally via UPS Express and USPS (Airmail).

  • USPS Airmail Rates will be quoted when you check out.
  • UPS Standard to Canada will be quoted when you check out.
  • UPS Express can be billed to your UPS Account or we can provide a quote.

Shipments to APO/FPO addresses are sent via USPS Priority Mail. 

Rates will be quoted when you check out.

Import, Brokerage, and Duty Charges

International shipments may be subject to import and duty charges.  We can not quote these charges because they vary by the importing country.  If you need an estimate of import charges, please contact the customs agency in your country. 

We can not reduce the value of items or mark "gift" on an invoice so you can avoid import charges.  Doing so is illegal and puts us at significant risk.

Rate Guide for Customs Clearance into Canada (as of 8/11/05)

UPS Customs Brokerage provides customs clearance for shipments entering Canada, including all other modes of transportation such as truck, rail, air and ocean freight.
Enjoy the low UPS rates for customs clearance on all your imports by simply telling your carrier that UPS is your Customs Broker.
To save even more, ship your urgent imports by UPS Worldwide Express and Expedited services, and routine entry preparation will be provided at no additional charge when UPS is designated as the Customs Broker. Additional charges may apply for complex customs clearance procedures.
