I ship to Canada all the time and all they need it the name
and address...

[quote="panic"][quote="crshNbrn"]I have had fedex tell me they require a business tax number for each shipment and if the shipment is going to a non-business client then i must provide the clients SSN .....wow... i cant imagine that any client would give his/her credit card number along with the Social Security Number...how could i ask for such a thing

As you can see from your previous post, it is YOUR SSN that they are after, not your customer's.[/quote]
