**You may have been told by the UK postal services or your parcel delivery partner that they have suspended deliveries into Canada because of the current strike by the Canadian Postal Services. During the busy run up to Christmas this may fill you with panic - but fear not! - SAMOS has the solution!**

[\#](#content-samos-doesnt-use-the-canadian-postal-service "Permalink")SAMOS doesn't use the Canadian Postal Service
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SAMOS does not use the Canadian Postal Services on arrival into Canada for final mile delivery, therefore we are operating a normal export and delivery process.

[\#](#content-samos-operates-daily-exports-to-canada "Permalink")SAMOS operates daily exports to Canada
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SAMOS operates a daily departure of e-commerce packages from the UK into Canada. This is a fully end to end trackable service, with delivery options for your customers across Canada. The SAMOS service into Canada is DDP, which means that your customers do not pay anything upon delivery. Time in transit is around 5 days.

[\#](#content-samos-can-integrate-with-your-shop-platform-or-wms "Permalink")SAMOS can integrate with your shop platform or WMS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SAMOS can integrate with your WMS or shopping platform. If you don't see yours [**here**](https://samos-e.com/services/integrations), please ask.

[\#](#content-great-shipping-rates-to-canada "Permalink")Great shipping rates to Canada
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You'll find our service is great value. Our fixed tariff for Canada and all our other services can be found [**here**](https://samos-e.com/pricing/samos-shipping-rates). We operate a zero surcharge promise, which means these are the shipping rates you'll pay, giving you piece of mind. The only charge that is reversed is the VAT, but you'll charge this the checkout process, so this won't come out of your margins. For help with VAT, duty and taxes to Canada please go [**here**](https://samos-e.com/resources/duties-and-taxes).
