Does US apple ship to canada

The new iphone6 plus was presented, and I'm interested in getting it. And I'm living in Canada, in apple store in Canada, the price of iphone6 plus is $100 more than in US apple store. Can I order on US's apple store and ship it to Canada? The price that I pay will be US price or Canada's price? Do I need to pay duty tax or something else?

No. Apple will not ship products across the border.


You could travel to the US and buy one if and when an unlocked version becomes available at retail. As for what taxes or duties you would be responsible for, that's a question for your government.


Considering you would have to take the phone back to the US to obtain service should it ever require it, it doesn't seem like it would be worth it to me. Not for a piddly $100.

Right now the exchange ratio is C$0.91 for every US$1.00. That accounts for almost $60 right there on a $650 purchase... Then there are taxes and import fees, etc. I don't know how things are handled in the great white north, but in the US, Sales Tax is NOT included in the advertised price. Where I'm at in Northern Ohio, that amounts to 8.5%, meaning that $650 phone is actually going to cost me $705 and change.

Also, make sure you are comparing "apples to apples" so to speak

*exchange rates are spot from about an hour ago*

1 Canadian Dollar equals

0.91 US Dollar

1 US Dollar equals

1.10 Canadian Dollar


store.Apple.com/us/buy-iphone/iphone6 = iPhone Plus 128GB = $499 USD [ = $551.05 CD at today's exchange rate ]

store.Apple.com/ca/buy-iphone/iphone6 = iPhone Plus 128GB = $1079 CD [ = $977.09 USD at today's exchange rate ]


The $100 of which you speak of is hard to figure out (for me at least). Canadian taxes+fees+??


best luck
