Duty & tariff treatment for Canada

Sri Lanka is a beneficiary of Canada’s General Preferential Tariff (GPT), renewed through to the end of 2034, with Sri Lanka retaining eligibility after the January 2025 reform, giving reduced or duty-free rates on a wide range of goods, including many foods and spices, subject to GPT rules of origin and the direct-shipment requirement.

GPT preference requires a certificate / statement of origin and that goods are shipped directly from Sri Lanka to Canada.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Canada Customs Tariff, and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our 도착 가격 계산기. We don’t publish line-item tariff figures because they move and depend on your precise product and origin proof.
