With 50 million Canadians crossing into the U.S. annually the rules and what you are allowed to bring are important to know. Here is a Duty Free Shopping Guide for Canadians.

What is Duty Free Shopping?

Stop at a Duty Free Shop on the Canada US Border for Discount Shopping, Washrooms, GST Rebate Services and Currency Exchange. Make sure to always save your receipts as the border guard may request this and aids in the duty process. ”Duty free” refers to items that can be purchased when crossing national borders. These items are free of taxes and duties and thus generally much cheaper than at regular stores. Duty free items are for “export only” and must be taken out of the country where purchased.

What Visitors Can Buy at Duty Free Shops on the Canadian / US Border?

Duty free shops offer deals on items that usually carry heavy duties and taxes. For example, visitors may save up to 50% on liquor and tobacco. Other popular items include perfume, watches, jewelry, accessories, candy, travel-related items and gifts.

Many duty free shops also have food courts, travel centers, GST Rebate services, business services, including faxes, telephones, photocopiers and telecommunication ports for laptop computers.

How much can I legally bring back from the United States to Canada?

Personal exemption amounts: The length of your absence from Canada determines the amount of goods you can bring back, without paying any duties.
