Zonos remittance fee question.
Summary: raanana is confused about the remittance fees charged by Zonos for selling collectable postcards and stamps, which they believe should be tariff-free according to the US government. They express concern over conflicting information from Zonos, Canada Post (CP), and experiences shared by other users. mrdutch1001 mentions that processing fees are typically billed to sellers, while byto253 and others report no fees for tariff-free items, suggesting checking other threads for more information. transtraders shares personal experience of not being charged fees when shipping DVDs to the USA, although the items haven't been delivered yet. dinomitesales confirms no processing fees are charged if no duty is owed, with no evidence contradicting this. Overall, there is uncertainty and mixed experiences regarding whether Zonos fees apply.
I still confused about Zonos remittance fee charges.
Selling collectable postcards and stamps,as per Zonos and US gov. site there are no tariff.
As per info on Zonos and CP page there are remittance fee ,that should be paid for each transaction and two options:
1- Zonos Verified account
$1.99 remittance fee: A flat charge for transferring the duties and taxes you collect to CBP.
2- Zonos app
- $3.99 remittance (converted): This is the amount is transferred after currency conversion, shown in Canadian dollars
When asked here,members who already shipped tariff free items to to USA saying,that there are no fees.
Spoke to CP over the phone and was told,that I have to pay fees.
Had a chat with Zonos and same answer,remitance fees must be paid.
Can anyone share their experince ,did you pay that fee for each transaction ?
Thank you

·10 months agoNo processing fees if no duty owing.
There has been zero anecdotal evidence to prove otherwise.

·10 months agoI have sent 2 dvd's to USA using Zonos and CP. No fees were charged on my end. They have not yet been delivered so I cannot confirm there is no fees on the buyers end yet.

OP10 months agoI'm following it and asked few times.The answer was no fees,though CP and Zonos told me,that there are and its clearly stated on their pages.
It is why decided to ask .It is possible,that as mentioned in previous answer,sellers didn't yet received invoices from Zonos.

·10 months agoIt is my understanding that there are processing fees, that are billed to the seller...I don't know much about it as I have no interest in contributing to the Trump Tariffs. Some of the other threads might have more information pertaining to Zonos and shipping to the USA. I suspect sellers have not yet received their invoices from Zonos.
