Honda Canada granted up to $493,106 customs duty remission on motor vehicles imported in a specific 2020 window

Plain-language summary · AI-assisted · not legal advice

A new federal remission order forgives up to $493,106 in customs duties that Honda Canada Inc. paid or owes on motor vehicles it imported during a one-month period in mid-2020. To receive the refund or relief, Honda Canada must file a formal claim with the Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness within two years of this order coming into force. The order automatically repeals itself on its second anniversary, so there is no ongoing benefit beyond that window. This affects Honda Canada directly; no other importers or vehicle manufacturers are covered by this order.
