U.S. Customers - Tariff Actions - Canada to U.S. shipments

As you know we are a small, family-owned and proud Canadian manufacturer.

We greatly appreciate your business, regardless of geopolitical challenges and which country you call home. 

At this moment, your U.S. citizen personal exemption of $800 per day remains in place on Canadian made goods for now  ("Section 321 de-minimis exemption").

As ITLA product is all "Made in Canada", products will flow through as usual ... tariff/duty/tax free under this daily $800 exemption.

However, there are U.S. Customs inspection delays at the border, your order may be opened and examined for country of origin.... again, no worry regarding ITLA products from Canada at this point in time.

Worth noting: the U.S. administration has published a new executive order indicating their intention to eliminate the "de minimis" exemption entirely once the appropriate systems are in place. Implementation date unknown.

You can read the latest executive order here:

 White House Executive Order – April 2025

For now, Section 321 remains intact for non-China-origin goods, with no additional changes or timelines announced.

We will continue to update this page as we learn more of these cross-border shipping challenges.

Sincerely,

Renée & Nick Masney
