Canada Extends Payment Deadline for Customs Duties

The deadline for customs payments due to the Canada Border Services Agency will be extended due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the agency said in bulletin. "The timeframe for all payments due to the Agency (duties and taxes on regular imports, re-assessments, penalties, etc) is extended to June 30, 2020," it said. "This also includes charges on the statement of account of March due on April 1. The CBSA will change the due date automatically, there is no need for companies to apply for the extension."
