Parcel Shipping to CPTPP Countries from Canada

The Canadian economy will get a boost from the implementation of the CP-TPP. The CP-TPP is a new trade agreement that Canada shares with 10 other countries that account for over 13% of the world’s economic output. The CP-TPP gives Canadian firms preferential access to a customer base of nearly half a billion people. The size of the CPTPP is comparable to Canada’s trade deal with the European Union, which came into effect in September 2017.

Companies of all sizes - shipping parcels to pallets - can take advantage of duty free access shipping from Canada to all CP-TPP countries.

CPTPP: A great opportunity For Canadian businesses

CP TPP is a reflection of the new trend in free-trade agreements. The agreement addresses the services that include architecture, engineering, environmental services, research and development. Perhaps most different is that it addresses intellectual property (IP) protections, such as the inclusion of the digital economy and protection for the IP of companies going into new markets.

Besides great opportunities in the regions largest economies (Japan), the smaller economies present impressive growth rates as great as seven percent. Canadian companies will gain access to markets that were previously off limits due to regulations, duties and other trade barriers.

The CPTPP removes some tariffs and clarifies ways to settle trade disputes. However, the agreement are filled with nuances and exemptions. Although there is a shared framework, there are unique aspects to each of the 10 countries bordering thePacific rim.

Jet can help companies send smaller "parcel samples" to prepare and understand the clearance processes in advance of larger ocean freight shipments.
