And unless the head unit is MADE IN USA it is not duty free. Duties are paid by all companies.

Stuff made over seas, can also be duty free depending on what the item is classified under in the customs harmonized system, you can get everything from the U.S. and Mexico duty free as long as it is accompanied by a Nafta Certificate ( North American Free Tade Agreement) and yes you must pay GST on all imports into Canada.

In order to use Nafta it has to be made or manufactured in USA or Mexico cut and dry. And customs will say the same thing. I have been importing for 3 years now and thats hows its been the whole time for me.

There are forms that you can fill out through the government sites stating that you only wish to import the product in order to export it ( there are conditions but once this is filled out on the product you do not have to pay duties ) there are also duty free impounds where they will warehouse your product and only charge duty on the items once they are released.

All to far ahead of the game at this time and place for you right now but if your ever bringing in container loads it can save you some cash.

The only problem is dont you have to export it out of the country? What if your selling it in Canada?
