How it works

Four simple steps to Sri Lanka

  1. 1

    Get a quote

    Tell us what you are sending and where in Sri Lanka it is going. We confirm a flat price and the right service level.

  2. 2

    We collect

    We collect from your door across the GTA, so there is no drop-off point or depot to find.

  3. 3

    We prepare the paperwork

    We complete the export and import documentation your shipment needs, so it is declared correctly.

  4. 4

    Delivered in Sri Lanka

    Your shipment travels to Sri Lanka and on to the destination address, and you can follow it through.

What you can send

Documents, parcels, gifts and more

Documents

Legal papers, academic transcripts, immigration and business documents. Documents move fastest and clear customs most easily.

Parcels and gifts

Clothing, shoes, toys, home goods and gifts for weddings and family celebrations. We help you pack so they arrive intact.

Personal effects

Books, kitchenware, textiles and belongings, a practical alternative to airline excess baggage when you are travelling or relocating.

Commercial goods

Product samples, spare parts and business shipments, with the documentation and customs handled.

How much does it cost to send a parcel to Sri Lanka?

The price depends on the size and weight of your shipment, the service level you choose and where in Sri Lanka it is going. We quote a clear, flat price before we collect. For larger boxes the charge is based on whichever is greater, the actual weight or the dimensional (volumetric) weight, so packing efficiently keeps the cost down. Use the quote form or call (647) 534-4630 for a price in minutes.

Customs and duty when shipping to Sri Lanka

Every shipment entering Sri Lanka is assessed by Sri Lanka Customs. Duties and taxes are set by them, not by us, and depend on the type of goods and their declared value. Documents are usually straightforward, gifts and personal effects are assessed on value, and commercial imports carry additional requirements. Tell us what you are sending and who is receiving it, and we will confirm what is needed before you pack.

  • Duties and taxes are set by the destination authority, not by us
  • Documents are generally the simplest to clear
  • Gifts and personal effects are assessed on declared value
  • Commercial imports carry additional paperwork requirements
  • Accurate declarations avoid delays and unexpected charges

What you cannot send to Sri Lanka

Some items are restricted or prohibited for international shipping and for import into Sri Lanka, and the restricted list changes from time to time. If you are unsure about anything on your list, ask us before you pack and we will check it for you.

  • Flammable or explosive items (lighters, fireworks)
  • Weapons, ammunition and replicas
  • Hazardous materials (acids, bleach, pesticides)
  • Perishable food that needs refrigeration
  • Drugs, narcotics and controlled substances
  • Cash, currency, precious metals and gems
  • Counterfeit or pirated goods
  • Batteries, including lithium batteries (restricted: check with us first)

Packing tips for a smooth delivery

Good packing protects your items and helps them clear customs without fuss. A few simple steps make all the difference, and we can supply materials and advice.

  • Use a sturdy, well-fitted box suited to the weight
  • Seal every opening with strong packing tape
  • Cushion the contents so nothing moves in transit
  • Keep a list of everything inside for your records
  • Declare all contents and any battery-operated devices accurately

Why send to Sri Lanka with Smart Save

You get door pickup across the GTA, honest flat pricing agreed before we collect, the customs paperwork prepared for you, and a real person who answers the phone. We are a family-owned Brampton courier, not a call centre, so the person who quotes your shipment is the person you can ask about it later.

Transit times

Transit time depends on the service level and the destination in Sri Lanka. Express options are fastest for urgent items, while economy costs less and takes longer. Clearance times vary, so we confirm a realistic window when we quote rather than promising a date we cannot control.

Seasonal note

Volumes rise before Sinhala and Tamil New Year in April and again before Christmas, and customs is busier with them. Send a week or two earlier than usual so your parcel arrives in good time.
