You don't have to pay duties and taxes if your mail item is:
A gift worth $60 or less; or
Worth $20 or less.
But,
Under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), duties on various goods imported from the United States and Mexico have been either reduced or eliminated. The NAFTA rates apply when the goods you are importing are made in the U.S. or Mexico.
