If you’re a Canadian organization buying ID card systems from a U.S. supplier, here’s the uncomfortable truth: you’re probably paying more than you think. Customs fees, currency conversion, brokerage charges—it all adds up, often after you’ve clicked “order.”
There’s a smarter way. And it starts with choosing a Canadian supplier who’s already done the math, the shipping, and the compliance for you.
Why Cross-Border Shipping Isn’t Worth the Hassle
Buying from the U.S. might feel familiar, but it comes at a cost. And we’re not just talking shipping.
Every international order risks:
- Customs delays that hold up time-sensitive equipment
- Unpredictable import fees that show up after you’ve already paid
- Exchange rate fluctuations that kill your budget
- Brokerage fees from courier services acting as middlemen
When your team is waiting on card printers or security upgrades, those delays aren’t just frustrating—they’re disruptive.
The True Cost of Ordering from U.S. Suppliers
That “cheaper” option? It’s rarely cheaper. Once you tack on customs fees in Canada, duty charges, and conversion from USD, your total cost can blow past what you’d pay to buy local.
You’re also putting your workflow at risk. Late shipments mean missed rollout dates, staff bottlenecks, and client dissatisfaction. Not to mention the time you’ll spend chasing tracking numbers across borders.
