AKZÉNTZ® TARIFF RELIEF

To help offset the cost of the new U.S. tariff, Akzéntz® is offering U.S. clients a 30% online discount on direct orders, while the tariffs are in place.

This Tariff Relief discount will significantly lower the impact of applicable duties, and your overall Akzentz product cost will remain roughly the same.

Orders of US$299+ also receive complimentary delivery, with Akzéntz® covering the additional customs-clearance costs (DDP) so there are no unexpected import charges upon delivery.

HOW TARIFF RELIEF WORKS

Because the 50% tariff is calculated after the Akzéntz® Tariff Relief discount is applied, a 30% discount offsets most of the additional tariff cost.

50% TARIFF

Effective August 22, 2026, a 50% U.S. Government tariff applies to many Canadian-origin goods entering the United States, including Akzéntz® products.

For the convenience of our U.S. clients, the applicable tariff will now be calculated and displayed at checkout under “Duties.” This allows the required import charge to be paid at the time your order is placed. Akzéntz® does not determine the tariff rate or receive any portion of these duties. They are collected solely to satisfy the applicable U.S. import tariff and are remitted to the appropriate U.S. authorities.

USA DISTRIBUTORS

U.S. clients can continue to purchase Akzéntz® products through our network of valued Authorized U.S. Distributors.

Orders shipping to clients from a U.S distributor do not incur tariffs or the additional US$29.95 DDP Service Fee.
