| Niagara Falls | Australian to Canada via USA-customs Posted: Wed November 21, 2007 07:53 PM UTC
Hi,
I am Australian citizen and will be spending a month in Toronto next year. During my stay I intend to drive down to the USA to look around and maybe do some shopping. When I drive nack to Canada from the USA will I have to pay duty on stuff I have bought in the USA? I thought that being a tourist in both Canada and USA may mean I pay no duty as I will have to pay any applicable duty when I return to Australia. Any advice appreciated. |

Unless you are connecting from flight to flight you will have to pay duty if you are over the limits set out for Canadians. They will assume you are buying for a Canadian and set those limits

You may bring in reasonable quantities of items for personal use as long as you do not leave them in Canada. You may also bring in gifts for Canadians as long as it does not exceed $60.00 per gift. Canadians are permitted to bring back $50.00 after being way 24 hours, $400.00 after 48hrs and up to 6 days and $750.00 after 7 days or more and this is per person. YOu really won't have any problems. Just be honest with customs officials upon your return to Canada.
