We will show to you, not only how to return a camera, but how to return any of their product(s). Please read the whole article and let us know your experience in the comments section below.

Canon Return Policy

Now, the Canon Return Policy states that you can return a product to Canon within 14 days. Provided, the product(s) must be unopened or defective. The online store of Canon, that is canon.com accepts returns, refunds, and exchanges for unopened items or defective items. Though, even after fulfilling these conditions, it should also come under these exceptions and timelines.

Conditions at the Time of Return

1. The product(s) must be in the original packaging along with all the accessories it came with(eg. cables, etc.)
2. Above all, the product(s) at the time of the return must be accompanied by a copy of the invoice/packaging slip. This has to be kept in the package. Only this will lead to its qualification for return.
3. According to the Canon Return Policy, the shipping and handling costs are to be borne by the customer. They will be borne by Canon only and only if they were found to be defective, or not in a good condition. This will be decided solely by Canon itself.

Exceptions to the Canon Return Policy

1. Undamaged CDs, Read Only Memory(ROMs) and instruction manuals are not eligible for exchanges or returns.
2. If you want to return the custom-made set of items that were selected from Build Your Bundle, then all of the products have to be returned altogether. They cannot be returned separately.
3. Canon will not bear the shipping and handling costs of the return. The customer will bear them. Canon will bear them only and only if they were found to be defective, which will again be decided by Canon.

The Process of Return or Exchange

Firstly, to return any product(s) to Canon, its Return Policy says that you must have an RMA Number. An RMA number is a Return Merchandise Authorization number. After that, the buyer must get the RMA number within 14 calendar days of the date on which he/she accepted the delivery. The product(s) then must be sent out to the Online Store of Canon. This must be done within the time given from the date of the issue of the RMA number on it. The location of the Canon Online Store may be written on the peel-off label that is present on the packaging slip. You can call the Canon Online Store to get the Return Merchandise Authorization Number. You can call them on their toll-free number 1-800-385-2155. The call should be between 8:00 am-Midnight ET, Monday through Friday, not including holidays.

After that, you have to clearly write the Return Merchandise Authorization Number on the shipping packaging’s outside. It is recommended to send the package through FedEx, UPS or any company giving out the insurance and tracking information.

Please Note

1. Canon will not be responsible for the loss that takes place in transit, that is while shipping it to the Canon Online Store. This responsibility is solely of the customer.
2. Once the return period is over, Canon does not return or exchange the product(s). You will have to look at your item’s limited warranty. For more information, you can visit their Service and Support website here.
