snake breeders shipping from US to Canada?

[redshepherd]

For those who breed/sell hatchlings in the US, is it normal to allow shipping to Canada? Around how much does it usually cost you for a (ball python) hatchling size box?

Does SYR allow you to get international shipping labels?

You would need to be licensed as an exporter. I think they try to get a lot of animals under one shipment because some fees are per shipment not per animal.

I don't believe that SYR offers international shipping.

Ah I see, thanks for the info!

If you look on Fauna there are some users advertising that they offer international shipping services.

We don't do any export at ShipYourReptiles.com.

We typically refer folks to export brokers like Michael Cole at Ballroom Pythons South, Chun Ku at Dynasty Reptiles or Rob Starzman at Designer Ball Pythons.

Export fees, duties and permits usually start around $1000 per shipment so it isn't usually economical for a one-animal export. If you can group together with a larger shipment that can break up the cost some, but that is all about timing and convenience.
