This is what you get when your parcel is seized by Canada Customs

I'm just sharing my experience for others who maybe curious about what happens if your goods get seized in Canada. I tried a vendor I never tried before, so I just ordered one kit. They used FedEx and the item was seized. Been a couple weeks since and yesterday I received a notice from the government. I'll attach the scanned files if you want to examine. I got a chuckle from the last generic public announcement... but yea, generic announcement folks.



I'm probably flagged now.

So a reminder, if your vendor is still using FedEx, you may want to reconsider 😉

On a side note, I ordered some pharma from India that got sent to Customs, but they released them and sent them to me (!)

Thanks for sharing this info, good to know. Sorry that happened though, that sucks.

My last peps came via UniUni who, while maddeningly slow, did get the parcel to me. And this next one is Canada Post, so .. .fingers crossed!

what does it mean when you are flagged? do you have any repercussions ?

If one gets flagged, there is more scrutiny at the border when they see yur name/address. They start sifting all your packages I suppose. Hopefully that doesn't happen, but I use Aliexpress enough that they'll get sick of it.

Mine has gotten held up in Honolulu and it says Clearance delay. It's been there for more than 10 days so I am assuming I'm not getting it. The vendor even said I should change my name and address and I'm hoping she just means if I order again but I'm wondering if anything will happen. ugh
