Expect extra time for consolidation and de-consolidation. #### FCL (Full-Container Load) Use a dedicated 20' or 40' container for higher volumes or sensitive schedules. #### Ocean vs. Air: Which is cheaper? Ocean surcharges can add up for small consignments. Up to ~100 kg, **air** is often comparable or cheaper with faster transit. Useful information: [Ocean shipping to/from Canada](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/understanding-canadian-ocean-freight-options). --- ### Shipping Terms to Consider (Incoterms) The default for many Sweden → Canada shipments is **DDU/DAP** (duties/taxes unpaid). Carriers often refer to **EXW** when the buyer handles export and import. Shippers may opt for **DDP** to prepay import fees for the consignee. [Verify the correct Incoterms](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/incoterms-and-shipping-international-packages-ddp-ddu-exw). --- ### Swedish Export Declaration When shipping internationally from Sweden, an **export declaration** is required and submitted electronically to Swedish Customs. Provide details such as HS code, value, quantity, and destination. Tariff classification follows the EU’s **Combined Nomenclature (CN)** — updated regularly. Confirm the latest codes and product-specific measures. [Read about HS codes & classification](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/hs-codes-shipping-online-from-canada). ### CETA: Duty-Free Clearance for Sweden ↔ Canada The EU and Canada benefit from **CETA**, enabling duty-free clearance when goods meet the agreement’s **rules of origin** and include valid proof. #### CETA Rules of Origin (Sweden ↔ Canada) - **Change in tariff classification (CTC):** Sufficient transformation results in a new HS heading/subheading. - **Regional value content (RVC):** A minimum percentage of value is added in the EU or Canada. Some sectors (textiles, automotive, chemicals) have specific rules. Always confirm with the importer and reference the latest regulations. ### Proof of Origin for Canada (CETA) To claim CETA, include an **origin declaration** on a commercial document (e.g., invoice). For commercial importations valued at **CAD $3,300 or less**, CBSA accepts a certifying statement that goods are EU/Sweden originating and qualify for CETA. Useful guide: [Certificate of origin explained](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/certificate-of-origin-explained) ![Sample CETA origin statement](https://www.jetworldwide.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Sample%20origin%20Statement%20CETA.webp?width=339&height=158&name=Sample%20origin%20Statement%20CETA.webp) **Important:** Maintain supporting documentation. See CBSA’s [Origin of Goods](https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/import/origin-origine-eng.html) page for current requirements. ## Importing Goods to Canada Shipped from Sweden Imports to Canada valued over **CA$20** are subject to tax/duty. Courier consignments under **CA$3,300** can clear via Canada’s low-value system (LVS). **Swedish-origin** goods that meet CETA may qualify for **0% duty** regardless of value (tax still applies). Common import fees can include duty (if not CETA), GST/HST, and carrier brokerage/advancement. See: [Understanding Canadian import fees](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/shipping-to-canada-from-the-usa-customs-carrier-fees-explained). ### CBSA CARM (Customs Assessment & Revenue Management) **CARM** modernizes how importers manage duties and taxes. **Commercial importers must register** in the CARM portal, select a customs broker, and provide financial security (surety bond or deposit). ![CARM registration flow chart](https://www.jetworldwide.com/hs-fs/hubfs/CARM%20Registration%20flow%20chart-1.webp?width=684&height=512&name=CARM%20Registration%20flow%20chart-1.webp) Related Resources - [Commercial invoice for international shipping](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/preparing-invoices-for-customs-clearance-and-cci) - [Declared value, CIF & valuation](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/declared-value-cif-and-valuation-for-international-shipping) - [When to include a certificate of origin](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/certificate-of-origin-explained) - [HS codes & tariff classification](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/hs-codes-shipping-online-from-canada) - [Canada importer registration (CARM)](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/canada_cers_vs_carm) - [Canada export declaration (CERS): B13A](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/bid/338219/b-13-form-declaration-of-exportation) - [What is a bill of lading / waybill?](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/bill-of-lading-explained) - [Shipping via ocean freight to and from Canada](https://www.jetworldwide.com/blog/shipping-sea-freight-from-canada) --- ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Do Swedish goods qualify for duty-free entry to Canada?
