Duty Drawback Canada

Duty Drawback Consulting in Canada

Are you paying duties on imported goods that are later exported or used in manufacturing for export? You may be entitled to a refund. Viacan helps Canadian importers and manufacturers recover millions in overpaid duties through the CBSA duty drawback program.

What Is Duty Drawback?

Duty drawback is a refund of customs duties paid on imported goods that are subsequently exported from Canada, either in their original form or after being incorporated into manufactured goods. Under Section 89 of the Customs Act, eligible importers can recover up to 99% of the duties paid.

Many Canadian manufacturers, distributors, and trading companies are leaving significant money on the table because they are not filing drawback claims or are filing them incorrectly. Viacan's drawback specialists identify your eligibility, calculate your potential refund, and manage the entire claims process.
