*** Note that the below points are subject to change at any time, based on revisions to the US or Canadian tariffs that are currently in place. We will update the information below as often as possible, and will edit the date above to reflect any updates.
Canadian Customers….
Tape and accessories sales – while ATR tape is made in the US, the current list of tariffs do not include magnetic media or reel to reel tape decks, so the pricing of ATR will remain unchanged.
Tape deck Sales – no tariffs are imposed on tape decks, so any sales in Canada remain unchanged.
US Customers….
Tape and accessories sales – ATR tape is not subject to the tariffs, as the tape is considered to be ‘US goods returning’ and our US pricing remains the same.
Our empty reels might possibly be subject to the 25% US tariffs, but I read something about items crossing the border under 800.00 US are exempt. I will confirm that tomorrow morning.
If ATR tape is loaded onto the reels, then the tape and reels are not subject to the tariff.
Tape Deck Sales – The tape decks we sell are made in the US, Japan, Germany or Switzerland, and are not subject to any tariffs.
Incoming Repairs – Whether you are shipping in a tape deck to our Washington State address, or are bringing it directly to our Canadian location yourself, the below form must be filled out, and put into the box containing the tape deck. We will present the form to US customs for registration if you are shipping in the deck, so that the deck qualifies for ‘US goods returning.’
If you are bringing the deck across the border yourself, present the form to US customs to get stamped prior to crossing the Canadian border. Incoming tape decks for service into Canada are not subject to any Canadian tariff.
We value all of our worldwide customers, and appreciate your understanding during these times.
