Canadian Surtax Remission Order for U.S. Goods in Key Sectors

The United States Surtax Remission Order provides relief from surtaxes on U.S. goods imported by Canadian public and private entities in sectors such as public health, health care, public safety, and national security. It also applies to goods used in Canadian manufacturing, processing, or food and beverage packaging. The remission is granted for goods imported before a specified date, allowing time for supply chain adjustments. Conditions for remission include no prior relief claims and a claim submission within two years of importation. The order aims to address challenges faced by Canadian stakeholders due to U.S. tariffs and supports the continuation of essential services and industries. The government encourages prioritizing Canadian goods despite the remission. The order is a response to U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods, which led Canada to impose countermeasures. The remission order is part of a broader strategy to manage the economic impact of these tariffs while supporting Canadian industries. [Source]

Canada’s Surtax Remission Order for U.S. Vehicle Imports 2025

The United States Surtax Remission Order (Motor Vehicles 2025) provides relief from Canada’s 25% counter tariffs on U.S. passenger vehicles and trucks, which were imposed in response to U.S. tariffs on Canadian auto imports. The remission is available to Canadian importers who manufacture vehicles in Canada and import them from the U.S. for sale, under specific conditions. These conditions include importing vehicles between April 9, 2025, and April 8, 2026, and making a remission claim within two years of importation. The framework aims to support Canadian auto producers by allowing them to import a certain quantity of U.S.-assembled vehicles tariff-free, provided they maintain production in Canada. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to preserve the integrated North American auto industry and encourage continued production and investment in Canada. The remission framework also requires importers to provide information to the Canadian government about their manufacturing and import activities. The order is designed to mitigate the financial impact of the tariff conflict on Canadian auto producers and maintain their competitiveness. [Source]
