Find out what fees you can expect and how to best send your mail to the North.
The costs for a letter to Canada vary depending on the weight and type of service you choose. In general, the price for a standard letter weighing up to 20 grams starts at around 1.10 euros when sent within the EU. For letters sent outside the EU, such as to Canada in this case, the price increases to about 1.70 euros for the same weight category. Depending on the weight, additional fees may apply.
For 20 to 50 grams, the price often ranges between 3.70 euros and 4.70 euros – it is advisable to consult the current rates of Deutsche Post, as these can occasionally change. For heavier shipments weighing up to one kilogram, the rate can rise to as much as 15 euros, especially if additional services such as tracking or insurance are desired.
The shipping duration can also play a role. A standard shipment to Canada usually takes between five and ten working days, while express options are available and offer quicker delivery but can come with significantly higher costs. Therefore, it is advisable to gather detailed information before shipping and compare the rates of a shipping service to find the best option for the desired requirements.
