Hi I am trying to understand how shipping labels works here in Canada. I usually go myself to a canada post office and ship my products from there but I was wondering if I can buy labels and use the post office as my dropoff? I’m not finding much information on this.
if you are shipping outside the country you must fill the duties form online https://www.canadapost-postescanada.ca/information/app/cdc?execution=e1s1
from Canada post first then kbring the bar code or print it to the post office and she has to scan and enter the info
If you ship within Canada you can register to get a discount for packages or express mail same price as regular https://www.canadapost-postescanada.ca/cpc/en/small-business.page?
You can also use fedex, ups onine and print labels. Otherwise, since I do not want to register for the business online shipping with Canada post, i see it exists with personal, try here, enter any adress, then sizing and it gives you a price and you can plan https://www.canadapost-postescanada.ca/cpc/en/home.page?
Hi, I’m just trying to understand if I can buy a shipping label on shopify, then drop my package at the nearest canada post office
Sorry, did not get that. I do not want to use their service because I heard people were getting extra charges at times, or the aoo was down and the package not moving, so I use the direct shipping company instead
Sorry if I cannot help but do contact shopify
Hello @jdez ,
- You can use Shopify Shipping to generate Canada Post shipping labels.
- You can create an account with Canada Post and create a shipping label directly from the Shopify order page using the PH Multi Carrier Shipping Label app.
- You can also go to the Canada Post website to generate a shipping label.
