Hey neighbors! Just a quick heads‑up regarding orders shipping to the United States. We are based in Ontario, Canada and ship from Carlisle, the small town we were founded in back in 1981. Due to tariffs introduced by the U.S. government, your order may be subject to duties and could experience delays during customs clearance. To keep things smooth and avoid tariffs, please select Canada Post / USPS at checkout. If you choose UPS as your shipping method, expect tariffs and possibly customs‑processing delays. We truly appreciate your understanding and support—and we’re always here to help if you have any questions!
Some of our products can be found on Amazon.com, which will avoid any potential shipping delay and tariffs.
What to Expect with USA Shipping
A quick guide to tariffs, duties, and potential delays when your order crosses the border.
TARIFFS
Certain products may be subject to cross-border tariffs when entering the United States. These fees are determined by government regulations and the product category.
Tariffs are set by U.S. customs, not Dutchman’s Gold.
Charges (if applicable) may be collected by the carrier.
Final amounts will be shown at checkout where available.
DUTIES
Import duties may apply depending on the value of your order and your delivery address. These costs are separate from your product total and shipping rate.
Duties are governed by U.S. import rules and thresholds.
In some cases, duties are prepaid at checkout.
Where duties are not prepaid, the carrier may invoice you directly.
SHIPPING DELAYS
While most USA orders arrive on time, customs inspections, weather, or carrier volume can occasionally add extra days in transit.
Peak seasons may increase carrier processing times.
Customs reviews can delay delivery beyond estimated dates.
Tracking updates will reflect the latest carrier information.
