US Slaps Tariffs on Canadian stamps/covers

A New US tariff is affecting our ability to send Canadian covers to our US customers.

Unlike previous tariffs, which exempted stamps and covers, this one lists Canadian stamps and covers (HTS code 9704.00.000) specifically.

The tariff applies only to US customers and only on Canadian covers. Covers from other countries are not affected. If you are in the USA, please do not add Canadian items to your shopping cart - we will be forced to remove them from your order.

(The tariff is 50% of the value of any Canadian items + US$4 filing fee for any order that includes Canadian covers. We can't afford to absorb this cost.)

We are no longer shipping to EU countries

Due to new EU customs requirements, we are no longer shipping to any EU countries.

Please see the statement on our Terms page for Shipping.

BuckaCover and CoverBox uploads coming Thursday November 19
November 11, 2026

On Thursday November 19 we will upload nearly 8,000 new covers to the BuckaCover inventory. There will be no new covers added to the CoverBox inventory this time. We will activate BuckaCover items will be available at exactly 3:00pm (2000 UTC).

Thanks to our pricing method, not only will there be thousands of fresh new covers, but over 16,000 older covers will be dropping down to the next price level.

We have outlined our pricing process in detail on our "Pricing" page.



We are no longer shipping to any European Union countries
November 1, 2026

● After 4 months of not being able to ship to 9 EU countries as Canada Post has worked to become compliant with new EU Customs rules, the rules turn out to be so bad, we can't afford them!

Canada Post has implemented new EU customs requirements for low value shipments. For example they have introduced:

  • A new €3 customs duty per item, in addition to import VAT
Every "Country of Origin" must be declared separately. That is a new "line" - even if it is a $1 cover. -- €3 charge.

See our complete statement: Read our EU shipping notice



Update on US tariffs
Sept. 12, 2025

We have solved the issues with the new US customs declaration rules. The good news is that all of our shipments to the USA are free of duty and tariffs. The bad news (only for us) is that the changes in the required customs declaration will cause a great deal more work on our end when preparing shipments, so our shipping times may be delayed a bit.

We had to reprogram our site to provide a "Country of Origin" for all 80,000 covers. We're still working on the last 15,000. You may notice some of your favorite categories in BuckaCover temporarily missing -- the ones where there are a bunch of different countries grouped together, especially topical categories. We're working on it - they will be back soon.

We have had to slightly increase our US shipping fee. It will now be a flat rate of $5 for all shipments up to $75 (up from $3 for $25-$75 shipments).

Enjoy!
