About TariffCalc

Making Canadian customs compliance accessible to everyone — from SMBs to customs brokers.

Our Mission

Canadian customs tariffs are among the most complex in the world: 99 chapters of the Harmonized System, over 20 free trade agreements, retaliatory surtaxes that change frequently, anti-dumping and countervailing measures, and provincial taxes that vary by destination. For importers, navigating this complexity often means costly errors, avoidable penalties, and hours of manual research.

Founded in Montreal in 2026, TariffCalc's mission is to make this information accessible in seconds. Our platform combines artificial intelligence for HS code classification — with step-by-step GRI reasoning — a duty calculator connected to real-time CBSA data, and automatic detection of all applicable surtaxes and SIMA measures.

Whether you are an experienced importer, a customs broker, a freight forwarder, or an entrepreneur importing for the first time, TariffCalc gives you accurate answers, quickly and with confidence.
