Plan around local peaks in Toronto
Weather and season: Snow and de-icing (December to March) can delay flights. We build buffer time into routings and switch to alternative airports when needed.
Holidays: In Canada, Canada Day (1 July), Thanksgiving (October) and Christmas to New Year can slow down customs, airlines and trucking. Book early and send documents in advance around these dates.
Customs clearance in Toronto
Every import and export from Toronto needs a customs declaration. In Canada, customs clearance is handled by a dedicated partner team that works under the Ziem Logistics brand, to our procedures and with the shipment data we prepare. You deal only with Ziem Logistics, from booking to release.
