Why is my US $296 order charged CAD $205 in duty fees?

I ordered CAD $296 (US $210) sent to Canada, but DHL says I owe CAD $205. Over 70% of order value. CBSA estimated 18%. Is this a mistake? Should I contact DHL/customs or return the order?

Do I Still Need to Declare at US Customs If I Didn’t Claim VAT Refund?

I didn’t submit a VAT refund at CDG due to not knowing the process. Now I’m flying back to the U.S. with ~$3K in purchases (VAT already paid).

Do I still need to declare everything at U.S. customs, even if I paid EU VAT and didn’t get a refund? I want to avoid any legal issues or double taxation.
