Discovered
border_quote

Estimate duties, tariffs, taxes and fees for goods moving into Canada or the US, by parcel or freight (truck, rail, air, ocean), and whether any item is banned. Gives who pays under the Incoterm, and what the exporting country requires. Use before buying from or shipping across the border.

Discovered
border_rules_status

Which Canada and US border rules are in force right now: tariff measures, rates, start dates and whether each list has been checked against the official text.

Discovered
door_cost_estimate

Estimate what a shopper may pay at the door for one parcel shipped between Canada and the United States: duty, tariffs and surtaxes, sales tax and carrier or postal fees, with the official rules in force today. Describe the product in plain words; a tariff code is suggested from it. Use for questions like "what will I pay on a hoodie from a US store shipped to Ontario?"
