| Paying taxes when buying an aninmal from the US Hi, I work for the Canadian Governement. I just had a girl come in and ask if people where normally charged PST and GST when buying aninmals from Breeders in the US. I am looking in to it through "official methods" but I was curious if any Canadians on here have had puppies shipped here from the states and if you were charged PST and GST as opposed to just a "border tax" (can't remember the offical name for it). |

| i was doing some research on canadian customs and it says you pay taxes on animals as well but i guess that is if you declare your new puppy but when i contacted customs agency about buying a dog and living with it for a year and bringing it back if i'll still have to pay duty and they laughed. they thought i was a kid calling (i dont blame them i sound like a kid on the phone) anyways they said no to that case but new puppies yes. *reason i called and asked is because i plan on going to korea next year to teach for a year and i plan on buying a puppy and bringing it back when i move back to canada* |
