I'm confused. I shipped a bike for my use to ride in a upcoming tour to Banff, Alberta via FedEx. I live in Massachusetts. Apparently, Canadian customs charged GST on the person the package was delivered too that FedEx forced to pay otherwise they wouldn
t deliver the package.. Is this correct, should the person have been charged the GST on a bike that will eventually make it's way back to the USA? I basically shipped the bike versus taking it with me on an airline...
All the websites I have googled seem to imply buying goods from the USA is subject to GST.. I couldn't find anthing that matched my situation.
The lady at the FedEx counter wrote "for personal use" on the bill...And I called FedEx and they sent me some form that they said would work or something...
