Importing Goods
What's the purpose of the Notice of Shipment form?
To provide all the necessary details to UVic's customs broker (Thompson Ahern) to clear the shipment with customs when it arrives in Canada. GST is assessed and collected at this point - faciliated by UVic's customs broker.
NOTE: some US vendors are registered for CAD taxes and will therefore act as the importer of the shipment to Canada. If you have paid GST to a US vendor then NO notice of shipment form is required since you already paid GST to the vendor. Questions? Reach out to purchase@uvic.ca
