CBSA Licensed

What Is a Bonded Warehouse?

A bonded warehouse is a secured facility licensed and regulated by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). Imported goods can be stored in a bonded warehouse without paying Canadian import duties or taxes until those goods are formally released into the Canadian market. This gives importers — from global brands to Amazon sellers — complete flexibility over when they incur duty costs.

CanadiEx's Toronto facility is CBSA-approved, fully insured, and purpose-built for e-commerce fulfillment. Our bonded warehouse is integrated with our 3PL operations, meaning your goods move seamlessly from bonded storage to pick-and-pack fulfillment the moment you choose to release them.

Benefits of Bonded Warehousing

Control when — and whether — you pay Canadian import duties.

Duty Deferral Up to 4 Years

Delay Canadian import duties until goods are released. Ideal for seasonal inventory or brands testing the Canadian market.

Consolidated Shipments

Combine shipments from multiple suppliers or origins into one bonded facility. Reduce per-unit shipping costs dramatically.

Cash Flow Optimization

Only pay duties on goods you actually sell into Canada. Unsold stock returned or re-exported incurs zero duty costs.

Re-Export Without Duties

Ship goods to the US, Europe, or back to origin without ever paying Canadian import duties.

Flexible Release Schedule

Release inventory in batches on your timeline — weekly, monthly, or on-demand based on sales velocity.

CBSA Compliance Handled

Our team manages all CBSA documentation, bonded release paperwork, and customs compliance on your behalf.
