IMPORTANT: We won't be able to submit the electronic manifest to the customs system if it contains incorrect product codes, insufficient description of contents, or if the total value of the parcel doesn't match the sum of the individual item values. Parcels with prohibited contents will be returned from Ukraine back to Canada at the sender's expense!
Prohibited contents include:
