It looks like you guys ship to Canada according to your website. However I’m wondering if there are any issues with our customs? what do you classify your products on your customs slips? I can look up to see if peri rx is even allowed in Canada, and if so, what the tariffs would be. Im asking because I live an hour from the border and have the option of a US shipping address and can pick up. I’d like to order a few months supply at a time so I’m also wondering about the shelf life as well? i know ordering whey protein is expensive as it’s considered dairy, and we have a 300% tariff on anything over 20 bucks. Thanks ---

Hey there! So, our distribution company are the folks who are taking care of the customs required for each country and we have had a lot of orders go out to Canada just fine. I can’t tell you the answer to your question off hand, however. ---

Im in Canada and just order/recieved my first peri-rx . I had it shipped to my home and it took about 3 weeks to get here with no extra shipping costs upon pick up from the post office. I also ordered lots of whey online without any extra tariffs. I would say your best bet is to ship direct to your home. I would buy it again if it wasn’t for the current exchange rate and servings per container . ---

I live in Canada - haven’t ordered peri or whey Rx, but I have bought a tshirt/socks from the barbell medicine store. Got dinged with a $13 customs fee upon delivery to my house. Canada Post employee agreed customs shouldn’t normally be charging for something like that, perhaps I got unlucky. ---

I live up in the frozen north and bought few tubs of Gainzzz rx and whey. I had to pay about an extra $10 a tub. It is not terrible, but does put them up in the higher cost brackets when shipping and customs are factored in. They are certainly quality products, but they do start to get a little expensive. I would be a regular consumer if we ever saw Amazon Prime shipping for them up in Canada. ---

Unless our customs is classifying whey under something other than dairy? Dairy is a huge tariff. I have a Us address and was thinking about ordering a stockpile of peri to take advantage of reduced shipping, and tax exempt status. Jordan, what kind of shelf life does peri rx have? I travel to the us a few times a year and would like to “stock up” for a few months at a time. ---

I drive to the us a few times a year so the plan is to stock up a 6 month supply each time. I can save on shipping with amazon, and depending on where peri rx is made, I can also save on some tariff charges. Jordan is your stuff made in North America? If so then no tax unless we’re talking whey protein, and if Canada decides it’s a dairy product. ---

In case anyone is watching/curious… I ordered a tub of peri rx and received it at my door in 2 weeks, plus one day. No additional taxes, etc. this is either because there are none due, or customs didn’t flag it. Once I start using this stuff I will order the subscription for it. The 5 dollars saved will offset the shipping charge to Canada. Side note… I actually received gainzz rx but it’s exactly the same as peri rx. Obviously the name was changed.
