If you bring your jewelry back (providing those jewelry are bought outside of Canada), no matter if its a gift or not, you will still have to declare it and possibly get taxed. If the gift is worth more than CAN$60, you will have to pay any applicable duty and taxes on any amount over CAN$60.
* For example, if a relative give you a gift worth CAN$200, you must pay any applicable duty, GST or HST and PST on CAN$140.
If you do not have the receipt, then they will do an estimate cost for your jewelry, and they will charge you taxes based on their estimate cost of that item. |
