If the gift is going to Canada, the path is a Canadian destination. If it is going to the United States, Delivered Duty Paid lives on the live shipping page — not in this guide. 3DCentral already publishes destination rates, free-shipping rules and US DDP copy on Shipping & Delivery. A sitewide US DDP notice can appear above the buy button. This article will not reprint those rules or freeze a tariff percent or a free-shipping threshold. It helps you name which country path you are on, then sends you to the live shipping page.
Finished display collectibles print on demand in Laval, Quebec. They are not children’s toys. A checkout total is a different question, covered in how to read a Canadian checkout total. Where a first-time buyer should start browsing is another question. The Canada Duck is only a compact Canadian-path example, not the duty rule.
Two destinations, two sets of rules
Featured Products
A gift path starts with the destination country. Canada-direct and US Delivered Duty Paid are not the same promise. 3DCentral’s live shipping page sets out the rates, the Canada free-shipping rule when it applies, and the US DDP explanation. This guide only helps you name the country, then sends you to that page. It is not a second shipping policy or a second checkout-total guide.
Use this page when you are still mixing the two countries in one sentence. Use shipping when you will say what the carrier does at the border. Use the checkout-total page when a card is already open and you are about to promise a payable number. Use hub versus shop home when the question is which page to start browsing on, not which country the parcel is for.
| What you actually need | Use | Do not use this page for |
|---|---|---|
| Today’s destination rates, Canada free-shipping rule, or US DDP copy | The live shipping page | A reprint of duty policy |
| A payable total before you promise a budget | How to read a Canadian checkout total | Teaching cart arithmetic here |
| Where a first-time Canadian buyer should start browsing | Gift Hub or shop home | A second hub-versus-grid essay |
| A compact Canadian-path example | Canada Duck as a maple-leaf listing, not as the duty rule | Treating the listing as DDP copy |
The Canadian path is not DDP
A gift that stays in Canada is a Canadian destination. Canadian orders do not pick up a US import-tariff line. That fact is stated on the live shipping page; this article will not freeze a rate, a threshold or a percent beside it. Production still sits in Laval, Quebec, in front of transit. Print-on-demand is not overnight air freight for a compact desk piece.
The live Canada Duck is a compact maple-leaf desk piece printed by 3DCentral in Quebec. The listing credits the design to community artist Romwba3D. Buying the finished print does not transfer the STL or commercial-printing rights; for those rights, contact the artist. Quebec printing is manufacture, not authorship. The duck is a Canadian-path example someone can name. It is not the DDP rule.
Open the live shipping page when you need the destination rule. Open the Canada Duck listing only when the object itself is the next click, not when you are still asking what the United States charges at the door.
The US path is DDP, and the shipping page explains it
Orders to the United States ship Delivered Duty Paid only. The live shipping page says so, and the sitewide US DDP notice repeats it. Checkout adds the US shipping rate plus current US import tariffs as a separate line. The carrier should not invoice customs on delivery. This page will not copy the live percent or freeze a dollar threshold.
If you need the duty rule, leave this article. Read the live shipping page for the current US path, then confirm the payable total in the cart — not in this copy.
Checkout total is a different job
Once a listing is open and you are about to say a number out loud, the job is the payable total: item line, destination shipping, tax, and any US tariff line the cart actually shows. The checkout-total guide covers that. Name the country here; read the total there; read DDP on shipping.
Do not use this guide to promise free shipping. Compact does not mean free. The Canada free-shipping rule, when it is on, lives on shipping and is confirmed in the cart. Do not paste a CAD threshold from memory into a gift note.
After you name the path
- Read the artist line on any listing you open. Canada Duck is Romwba3D. A finished print is not the STL.
- The cart is still the total. Shipping copy explains the path. Checkout shows the payable number for that destination.
- These are display collectibles. They are not children’s toys and not chew toys for pets. Keep small parts away from young children and from animals that chew.
- Print-on-demand needs calendar time. Confirm windows on the live shipping page after you name the country. Do not quote an arrival date from this article.
FAQ
Is this the Delivered Duty Paid policy?
No. The live shipping page covers US DDP, destination rates and the Canada free-shipping rule. This guide only helps you choose between the Canadian and US gift paths.
Why does this guide end on the shipping page, not a product listing?
Because the next honest click is destination rules, not a SKU. Canada Duck is a compact Canadian-path example designed by Romwba3D. It is not the duty policy.
Where do I go to promise a budget out loud?
To the live checkout-total page after a card is open, and to the cart for the payable number. This page will not teach that arithmetic.
Are these toys?
No. 3DCentral pieces are decorative display collectibles for adults and collectors unless a specific listing says otherwise. They are not children’s toys. Keep them away from young children and from pets that chew.
Name the country, then leave
Canada-direct and US Delivered Duty Paid are different paths. This guide is not the duty rule. Read the live shipping page for the destination you actually named.
