Bonded Storage

Moving boxes

When shipping goods into Canada, customs clearance is not always immediate. That is where bonded storage comes in. If your shipment does not clear customs at the first port of entry, it must be held in a bonded storage warehouse until all documentation is reviewed and approved. This process ensures that your items are kept secure and in full compliance with Canadian customs regulations.

At Orbit, we offer reliable and cost-effective bonded storage solutions for personal effects, household belongings, and even vehicles. Whether your shipment is entering Canada or just passing through, our secure storage services give you peace of mind during the transition. Our facilities are fireproof, fully alarmed, and managed to the highest safety standards.

Using our bonded warehouse allows you to temporarily store your goods in Canada while customs processing is completed. Once your shipment is cleared, we can either deliver it directly to your new location or transfer it to one of our standard storage facilities if you need more time.

Our team is experienced in international logistics and customs requirements. We are here to guide you through the entire process, making sure your move stays on track and your goods remain protected.

Exports

One additional advantage of having a bonded warehouse would be
that we can accept new items purchased into our warehouse. when you purchase
these items, you do not have to pay taxes on them.

Officer, George Fortier, from Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) 1-800-959-8287

GST/HST memorandum 4.5.2

“that goods that are being shipped out of Canada and are delivered to the exporting warehouse are to be exempt from HST.”
