Editor's Notes
Hello, my name is Graham Robins Jr., and I am with A & A Contract Customs Brokers Ltd. This short presentation will show you the basic steps in getting started with the Non Resident Importer Program for U.S. shippers.
The four topics we will be discussing in this presentation are 1. The challenges with the old way of shipping. 2. An easy solution. 3. No cost to the U.S. shipper. 4. Getting started. So, here we go..
With the old way of shipping, there are multiple interaction with various companies – making the border seem like an inefficient hassle. Each of your customers may have their own customs broker with different requirements for documentation, NAFTA certificates and product information. Each broker may also charge different fees, meaning that it can have an impact on the cost of your product to Canada. Lastly, you don’t have a specific person or company taking care of you or your customers.
Becoming a Non Resident Importer is an easy solution. You collect the fees from your customer and remit them to A & A. A & A remits the Customs fees to Canada Customs on your behalf. Your customer receives their shipment as though it is a domestic shipment. Best of all – no border hassles!
Another great benefit is that – there is no cost to you. All charges are collected from the Canadian customer, and they flow through you, to A & A, to Canada Customs.
Getting started is also easy. We work with you to determine the Customs fees you will ad you your invoice. If the goods are made in the U.S., Mexico or Canada, there is no duty – so there will simply be a percentage for GST (Tax) and our processing fee. Then, we get the Account application back from you and you are ready to start shipping.
Yes, it’s that easy. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me, toll free phone or by email. I hope to speak with you soon.
