Service and repair form

Located in Auckland?

Did you know you can drop off your eligible items for servicing to our Canon Auckland Service Counter? Complete the form and refer to shipping instructions below for location details and opening hours. Note, service and repairs of cameras and related products is only available at our Canon Auckland location.

Is your Canon product eligible?

Having established a fault with your Canon product, you need to check that the Service and Repair team can make the necessary repairs. As Canon products age, the capability to carry out the necessary repairs is only possible if we hold the required spare parts. Over time, these spare parts will become obsolete.

Below is a Service & Repair form that you should complete. However, before completing the form, please check that your Canon product is eligible in the drop-down box.

If your product is not on this list, we may be able to help still, but you will need to contact our Service Desk on 0800 222 666 who will advise if this is possible.
