You can now ship International with ShipSimple! The process is very similar to shipping within Canada, just with a couple more pieces of information required.
Once you have entered the Destination Address, you will then be able to follow the steps set up on the ShipSimple platform to complete your International Shipment. The first step is Building your Commercial Invoice.
Don't worry, we will walk you through every step to collect all of the necessary information. Please ensure that the information provided, is accurate and true, so it is not to incur additional fees or delays in transit time.
In the above image, you will see a field for "HS Code/Commodity Code" - All International Shipments require a valid HS/Commodity Code in order to clear customs. We have equipped this field with a handy search option, to assist you in making your selection. Selecting the search feature will open a separate Browser Tab and bring you to the Canada Post website HS/Commodity Code Search Engine.
