1. "Green Inflation": The New Logistics Variable in 2026

In 2026, Carbon Tax has fully trickled down to e-commerce delivery. In Canada, federal carbon levies have increased per-parcel surcharges by 6-8%. In Australia, mandatory carbon disclosure has led carriers to impose "offset fees" on non-green shipping lanes, creating a new cost layer for sellers.

2. The Tax Stacking Trap: GST/HST and Carbon Levies

Most sellers overlook that when surcharges rise, consumption taxes (like Canada’s HST/GST) inflate proportionally. For top sellers, this "tax-on-fee" logic drains thousands in annual profit. In 2026, standard retail accounts are simply unable to fight this systemic cost increase.

3. Featship’s Compliance Shield: The Power of Protocols
