🌿 Mint Velvet UK → 🇨🇦 Canada

British relaxed glamour.
Delivered across Canada.

Mint Velvet will ship a single order to Canada — but a British wardrobe rarely stops at one brand. Your free UK Resendify address collects Mint Velvet plus every other UK shop in one place; we combine it all into one Canada-bound parcel and estimate GST/HST and duty with the real UK-parcel rules before it flies.

Why Mint Velvet UK

What Canadian shoppers gain by buying on mintvelvet.co.uk

Founded in 2009, Mint Velvet does 'relaxed glamour' at premium-high-street prices: draped midi dresses around £170, scallop-trim knits from £79, suede jackets at £350, and denim in Short, Regular and Long lengths with its own fit guide. In Canada, Next carries an edit of the brand — the UK site is the master catalogue, with every size 6–18, the new-season drops and a sale that runs up to 60% off, all in GBP. Buying at the source through a UK address puts the whole range, not a selection, within reach. Shipping time from Europe to Canada depends on the carrier and service level you choose. Resendify handles customs declarations and provides door-to-door tracking for all Canadian provinces.

What to buy on mintvelvet.co.uk (with real GBP prices)

Mint Velvet's 'relaxed glamour' is best shopped at the source, where the full size run (UK 6–18) and trouser lengths actually stay in stock. Current examples straight from mintvelvet.co.uk on 28 Jul 2026: the Black Draped Asymmetric Midi Dress at £170 in sizes 06–18, the Green Scallop Trim Knit Top at £79, Black Checked Soft Balloon Trousers at £110 in Short, Regular and Long, the Neutral Suede Military Jacket at £350, and the Kailey Suede Ankle Boots at £150 in UK 3–8. The sale runs up to 60% off with new lines added. For Canadian shoppers the forwarding case is the haul: Next Canada carries an edit and Mint Velvet's own Canadian delivery handles single orders well, but a UK address lets you combine the full-range pieces with other British brands — including shops that never deliver to Canada — and cross the Atlantic once, as one parcel with one customs entry.

  • Draped and asymmetric midi dresses — around £170, cut in UK 06–18 with the full run at the source
  • Scallop-trim and fine-gauge knits — from £79, sized XS–XL
  • Balloon and wide-leg trousers — £110, in Short, Regular and Long lengths international stockists rarely carry
  • Suede and leather outerwear — the £350 military jacket is the current hero piece
  • Kailey suede ankle boots and seasonal footwear — £150, UK 3–8 (EU 36–41)
  • Denim with Mint Velvet's own fit guide — relaxed, wide and straight cuts by length
  • Sale section — up to 60% off with lines added through the season

The problem

Shopping British brands from Canada gets expensive per store. Here's the fix.

💸

Per-store international fees add up

Order from three UK brands separately and each shipment carries its own international fee and its own customs event. One UK address collects everything; one consolidated parcel crosses the Atlantic.

📋

Canada's real thresholds surprise people

For parcels from the UK the de minimis is just CAD $20 — the CAD $150/$40 figures quoted everywhere apply only to US/Mexico courier shipments under CUSMA. We estimate with the correct UK-parcel rules so the courier's bill isn't a surprise.

🛍️

Canadian stockists carry an edit, not the range

Next Canada stocks a selection of Mint Velvet; the full catalogue — every size 6–18, Short/Regular/Long lengths, new drops and the deepest sale — lives on mintvelvet.co.uk.

Mint Velvet sizing for Canadian shoppers: subtract four, keep the length

Mint Velvet cuts on the UK scale — clothing in UK 6–18, knitwear in XS–XL, shoes in UK 3–8 (EU 36–41 printed alongside). Canada follows US sizing, so the conversion is mechanical: subtract four from the UK number, making a UK 10 roughly a US/CA 6 and a UK 14 roughly a US/CA 10. The house cut leans relaxed — that is the brand's whole aesthetic — so if you sit between sizes on drapey dresses and knits, most shoppers hold their true size rather than sizing up. Trousers are the detail worth crossing an ocean for: many styles come in Short, Regular and Long leg lengths, a run that stockists rarely import. Check the denim fit guide on the UK site for leg measurements in centimetres. One practical note: a forwarded parcel is slow to swap, so confirm against the garment measurements on each product page rather than guessing from the label.

  • US/CA size = UK size minus 4: UK 8 → 4, UK 12 → 8, UK 16 → 12.
  • The cut runs relaxed by design — most shoppers keep their true size on drapey pieces.
  • Trouser lengths (Short/Regular/Long) are the UK-site advantage — measure against the site's cm charts.

Canada customs & import duty (EU → Canada), explained

Here is the honest version most forwarders won't tell you. For a parcel coming from the EU, Canada's de minimis is just CAD 20 — both duty and tax. Above that, GST/HST/PST applies to the entire value, not only the part over CAD 20. Watch out for the most common mistake online: the widely-quoted CAD 150 (duty) and CAD 40 (tax) thresholds are NOT for you. Those only apply to courier goods shipped from the US or Mexico under CUSMA, and they do not cover EU parcels — quoting them would badly understate what a Canadian actually pays. The consumption tax is 5% federal GST plus a provincial component, so combined roughly 5%-15% depending on the recipient's province (for example Alberta 5%, Ontario 13%, New Brunswick, Newfoundland & Labrador and PEI 15%). The carrier collects this on delivery (the courier CLVS program; Canada Post adds about CAD 9.95 in handling), though some merchants prepay it as DDP. One number to plan around: your EU store price already includes local EU VAT, and shipping through a forwarder to an EU address does not let a private shopper reclaim that VAT (a tourist refund needs a personal export with a customs stamp, which a forwarder can't do). So budget against the EU sticker price, not a tax-free one.

On duty, the good news is that EU-origin goods are 0% under CETA — but only if the EU seller includes a valid CETA origin declaration on the invoice. Without that declaration, standard MFN rates apply (clothing roughly 16-18%, footwear roughly 16-20%, leather roughly 8-11%), while cosmetics and most electronics are largely 0% either way. Because whether you pay 0% or full MFN hinges on a single line on the seller's invoice, a generic "X% on clothes" figure tells you very little about your actual bill. Rather than guess, we estimate your full landed cost — item value, plus shipping, plus estimated duty — before you ship, so you can plan with a realistic estimate. Create your free EU forwarding address, fill your cart at the EU store, and run it through our calculator for the real number before you commit.

UK VAT and Canadian import charges: the honest version

Straight answers, because the courier's doorstep bill is where forwarding services usually lose trust. First: mintvelvet.co.uk prices include 20% UK VAT, and when your order delivers to a UK forwarding address that VAT stays in the price — it was a domestic UK sale, and no forwarder can zero-rate it as an export. Second: Canada assesses forwarded parcels from just CAD $20 of value — the CAD $150/$40 thresholds you may have read about apply only to courier shipments from the US or Mexico under CUSMA, not to parcels from Britain. Above CAD $20, GST/HST of 5–15% (by your province) applies on the full value, and clothing attracts MFN duty of roughly 16–18% unless the goods qualify as UK-originating under the Canada-UK Trade Continuity Agreement with an origin declaration on the invoice — most fashion is manufactured outside the UK, so budget for duty rather than counting on the preference. The courier collects these charges plus a handling fee before delivery. We estimate the full landed cost for your province before the parcel leaves the UK.

De minimis CAD $20 for UK-origin parcels (CUSMA CAD $150/$40 thresholds do not apply); GST/HST 5–15% by province on the full value; clothing MFN duty ~16–18% unless UK-originating under CUKTCA with an origin declaration; courier collects charges plus a handling fee.

What it costs to ship a Mint Velvet haul from the UK to Canada

Womenswear forwards efficiently because it packs flat and dense. A typical Mint Velvet order — a dress, a knit, a pair of trousers — sits around 1.2–1.6 kg and travels close to its actual weight. The pieces that change the bill are the ones the brand is famous for: suede and leather jackets run 1.2–1.5 kg, boots arrive boxed at 1.5–2 kg, and a faux-fur or wool winter coat can bill at 3–4 kg volumetric even though it weighs half that on the scale — relevant shopping for a Canadian winter. The play: collect the haul at your UK address — Mint Velvet plus any other British brands — inside your free 60-day storage window, then consolidate into one box so a single international leg and one CBSA customs entry cover everything. Run your basket through the calculator on this page for a live band before you commit at checkout.

  • Typical 3-piece order ≈ 1.2–1.6 kg — light, flat-packing, close to actual weight.
  • Winter coats and faux fur are volumetric traps — 3–4 kg billable despite low scale weight.
  • One consolidated box = one shipping charge and one Canadian customs entry (one courier handling fee, not several).
ItemApprox. weight
Knit top0.4–0.5 kg
Midi dress0.5 kg
Trousers / jeans0.5–0.6 kg
Suede military jacket1.2–1.5 kg
Ankle boots (boxed)1.5–2 kg
Winter coat / faux fur1.5 kg actual (3–4 kg volumetric)

Weights are typical estimates for planning; couriers bill the higher of actual vs volumetric weight and the parcel cap is 30 kg. We estimate your Canadian landed cost before you ship. Source: Mint Velvet — delivery information.

A real landed-cost example (Mint Velvet UK → Canada)

Here is roughly what a Mint Velvet dress costs delivered to an Ontario door. Treat it as an illustration, not a quote — your shipping price comes from the calculator above, and we estimate GST/HST and duty for your province and your exact parcel before it leaves the UK.

  • Your province sets the GST/HST rate (5% Alberta to 15% in NB/NL/PEI) — we calculate with yours, on the full value, as Canada requires above CAD $20.
  • The duty line is the honest wildcard: 0% needs a UK-origin declaration on the invoice, which most garments made abroad can't carry — we check what's realistic before quoting.
  • Consolidating several UK-brand orders into the parcel spreads shipping and the single handling fee across the whole haul.

Mint Velvet returns from Canada: plan the haul so you don't need them

Honesty first: if you think you'll return an item, Mint Velvet's own Canadian delivery — with free returns through its portal — is the better channel for that single purchase. Forwarding is for the haul you intend to keep. A mintvelvet.co.uk order is a UK domestic sale, so its return journey ends in Britain: while your parcels are still at our UK warehouse, sending something back to Mint Velvet is a cheap domestic UK shipment — we check and photograph arrivals, so wrong-item or damage cases get caught inside the returns window. Tell us before we forward and we'll help arrange it. Once the box has crossed the Atlantic, a return means international postage back to the UK at your cost and the clock may run out, so treat forwarded pieces as near-final. The best insurance is upstream: use the cm measurement charts, keep your true size on relaxed cuts, and pick trouser lengths deliberately.

  • Returning a single maybe-item? Mint Velvet's own Canadian delivery with free returns is honestly the better tool for that.
  • While the haul is at our UK warehouse, a return to Mint Velvet is a domestic UK shipment — flag issues before we forward.
  • After forwarding, returns are international and slow — buy with the measurement charts, not the guesswork.

Return terms reflect Mint Velvet policy as of 28 Jul 2026 and can change; confirm current terms at mintvelvet.co.uk before ordering. Source: Mint Velvet — international shipping and returns.

FAQ

Buying from Mint Velvet UK and shipping to Canada

Yes — Mint Velvet delivers to Canada through Global-e: standard shipping CAD $10 (5–10 working days), express CAD $25, free standard over CAD $500, with free returns via its portal. Forwarding earns its place when one brand isn't the whole story: consolidating a multi-brand British haul into one parcel, and shopping the full UK catalogue in GBP. Mint Velvet Uk Ship shoppers shipping to Canada frequently consolidate 2–4 orders to cut per-kg costs significantly.

Two honest cases. First, the multi-brand haul: Mint Velvet plus other UK shops — many of which don't ship to Canada at all — collected at one UK address and flown as one parcel with one shipping charge. Second, catalogue depth: the UK site carries every size 6–18 and trouser length; stockists and international storefronts carry selections. For a single returnable Mint Velvet item, the brand's own Canadian delivery with free returns is genuinely competitive — we'd rather you know that. Note that Mint Velvet Uk Ship return windows typically start from your original purchase date, not from when your package arrives in Canada.

For a forwarded parcel from the UK: anything over CAD $20 is assessed — that low threshold is the real rule for UK-origin parcels (the CAD $150/$40 thresholds are CUSMA-only). GST/HST of 5–15% applies on the full value depending on your province, and clothing attracts MFN duty of roughly 16–18% unless the goods qualify as UK-originating under the Canada-UK Trade Continuity Agreement with an origin declaration on the invoice — most fashion is made elsewhere, so budget for duty. The courier collects charges plus a handling fee on delivery. We estimate it all before you ship. Verified 28 Jul 2026 — rules change; check cbsa-asfc.gc.ca for current rules.

Canada follows US sizing, so subtract four from the UK number: UK 10 is roughly US/CA 6, UK 14 roughly US/CA 10. Knitwear runs XS–XL and shoes UK 3–8 (EU 36–41, about US/CA 5–10). The Short/Regular/Long trouser lengths are the UK-site advantage — use the cm measurement charts on each product page.

Checked on mintvelvet.co.uk on 28 Jul 2026: draped asymmetric midi dresses at £170, scallop-trim knits at £79, soft balloon trousers at £110 in three lengths, the suede military jacket at £350 and Kailey suede ankle boots at £150 — with the sale at up to 60% off. UK prices include 20% UK VAT, which stays in the price when you forward.

Yes. We hold parcels free for up to 60 days, so your Mint Velvet order can wait for other British brands — including shops that never deliver to Canada — and everything crosses as one parcel with a single shipping charge and one customs entry. For Mint Velvet Uk Ship shipments specifically heading to Canada, our team pre-fills the commercial invoice to streamline clearance.
