What Is the Canada Customs Tariff?
The Canada customs tariff is the official schedule of duty rates applied to imported goods entering Canada.

Use the lookup tool below to find the duty rate for your product by entering its HS code.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers for importers evaluating customs brokerage, CARM compliance, and duty management options in Canada.
What is the Canada customs tariff?
The Canada customs tariff is the official schedule of duty rates applied to imported goods entering Canada, administered by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). Every commercially imported product is assigned a 10-digit tariff classification number that determines its applicable duty rate, trade agreement eligibility (CUSMA, CPTPP, CETA), and any surtax exposure.
How do I find the duty rate for my product?
Enter your product's HS code (Harmonized System code) into the tariff lookup tool above. The tool searches Canada's customs tariff schedule and returns the applicable Most-Favoured-Nation (MFN) duty rate, preferential rates under trade agreements, and any special surtaxes. If you are unsure of your HS code, Ezcustoms can classify your goods correctly.
What is the difference between MFN and preferential duty rates?
The Most-Favoured-Nation (MFN) rate is the standard duty rate applied to goods from countries that do not have a free trade agreement with Canada. Preferential rates — such as those under CUSMA (Canada-US-Mexico), CPTPP (Trans-Pacific), or CETA (Canada-EU) — are lower rates available to goods that originate in qualifying countries and meet the agreement's rules of origin.
Does CUSMA/USMCA affect my duty rate?
Yes. Goods originating in the United States or Mexico may qualify for preferential duty rates under CUSMA (Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement). To claim the CUSMA rate, goods must meet the agreement's rules of origin requirements and the importer must have a valid certificate of origin on file. Ezcustoms can assess CUSMA eligibility for your products.
