Canada Post will now only print US-bound labels if duty is prepaid or auto-billing is enabled with Zonos. We are currently working with Canada Post to support this. In the meantime, please consider alternative carriers to continue shipping to the US.
Following the recent changes to US Customs regulations, Royal Mail announced that they would no longer support shipments to the United States via their current services.
From Tuesday 26th August, all current Royal Mail international services will therefore no longer be available to be used within the ShipStation platform for packages being sent to the United States.
Royal Mail are expecting to launch new USA PDDP services on Thursday 28th August and our development teams are currently working with Royal Mail to ensure that these services are available in the ShipStation platform as soon as possible.
We will send a further update with guidance on what actions you will need to take to ensure that you are able to utilise these new services once they are available on the ShipStation platform. Please contact ShipStation Support should you have any further queries or visit the Royal Mail updates page: https://www.royalmail.com/usabusinessupdates
To comply with new customs regulations, carriers, including USPS and others, are now requiring six-digit Harmonized System (HS) codes on all international commercial shipments.
Effective September 1, 2025, shipments without these codes may be delayed or rejected by customs authorities.
Canada Post is currently reviewing the union’s response and will be seeking further clarification as needed. Further meetings are scheduled to resume discussions. Learn more.
