Looking to import a standing desk frame from the USA
Hi there,
I am interested in buying a standing desk from an american company. They offer shipping to Canada through Fedex ground but I would be responsible to pay for duties and taxes. The desk comes in 2 boxes. I was wondering, under the CUSMA, if the desk frame is considered an american product if it has chinese motors in the legs, controller and paddle and it's assembled/manufactured by the american company even if it's using some chinese parts.
If so, how can I declare this to CBSA using fedex so they don't charge me duties? Does it need to be written on the box that it's "made in the usa" or does the seller have to fill some paperwork? As mentionned, he wants me to pay for duties and taxes but he will charge me the shipping through fedex, so do I have to fill out some paperwork?
Is there a way to pay the duties/taxes myself so Fedex doesn't charge me a broker fee?
Is there a service that I could use that could provide me a US address and then ship the product to me in Quebec? The company offers free shipping in the USA.
Thank you all for your help!
Thank you very much.
