Chanel Bag Prices In the United States VS Canada

I know some of you are curious about the price difference of Chanel handbags between the US and Canada. Some people even travel to the United States curious to see if they purchase Chanel for a cheaper price. Personally, I don’t think there is much of difference cost wise.

I decided to research the prices of the Chanel handbags in the US and Canada to see if there is an actual difference. I hope this helps some you ladies out.

Let’s keep in mind that Canada does have a VAT (value added tax) on their products. The VAT on Chanel bags is around 15%. While the US doesn’t have a VAT, there is still a tax placed on items. It’s called a sales tax, and the percentage varies from state to state.

So there you have it; an in depth look at the Chanel prices in Canada and the US. You can clearly see that the price of Chanel bags is lower in the US. It’s not significantly lower than Canada, but it’s still the lesser of the two. So if you’re in Canada, and you’re close to the States it may be a good idea to travel down for a lower priced Chanel bag. Now, you’re probably wondering why the bags are more expensive in Canada. I’m not too clear about this answer but I believe it has to do with the taxing methods of each country.

The classic bags are the most popular Chanel bags and are few hundred dollars more expensive in Canada. Another factor they may play a role is the difference in currencies. However, the Canadian dollar and the US dollar are about the same in worth. Maybe it just has to with taxes after all.

For all the ladies in the US, buy your Chanel bags locally. However, for all those in Canada that are able to travel to the US it may be worth it.
If you ladies have any more information about this please let me know. I hoped this was helpful for you.

  1. Is there a tax refund in Canada like in Europe? I’ll be in Canada in December and I am thinking of buying a classic Chanel bag.

    • Hi Rachel, unfortunately you cannot. The law has been changed since April 2007. You cannot claim GST/HST (good and service tax, harmonized sales tax) back from all the purchases you make in Canada.
