The Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) are expected to strike as of May 23, 2025. This will disrupt normal delivery schedules throughout Canada.
If you use eBay International Shipping, you are automatically protected from late or no delivery claims and your seller performance standards and service metrics won’t be affected by international shipping. Any negative or neutral feedback from handling during international transit will be removed from your account.
As eBay International Shipping has the capability to pivot and leverage multiple carriers around the world, eBay is utilizing alternate delivery providers in Canada and anticipates only minor disruptions to eBay International Shipping deliveries in Canada at this time.
If you have already shipped or are shipping directly to Canada, you are protected from late delivery claims as long as you meet your stated handling times. Be sure to upload valid tracking in order to benefit from enhanced protections to sellers.
We are continuing to monitor the situation and will adjust estimated delivery dates for Canadian buyers as needed.
As always, thank you for selling on eBay.
