CUSTOMS BROKERS CANADA

PRE-ARRIVAL
CUSTOMS RELEASE
Get shipments delivered fast in Canada
by using the "Pre-Arrival Release System"!
Under this system, Customs Brokers can arrange Customs Release of goods prior to their arrival at Border Customs Ports or Inland Customs Warehouses.

THIS IS HOW THE PRE-ARRIVAL RELEASE SYSTEM WORKS:
The Shipper advises Customs Brokers Canada of the dispatch of each shipment by FAXING copies of the Commercial Invoice or the Customs Invoice.

The Carrier or Forwarder asks Customs Brokers Canada to arrange PARS clearance by FAXING a copy of his Cargo Control Document plus copies of the Commercial Invoice or Customs Invoice, and advising the Customs Clearance Port and the estimated dateand time of arrival.

NOTE: The Carrier's Cargo Control Document must include a Bar Code Label with the letters "PARS" in the Cargo Control Number!

Customs Brokers Canada transmits pertinent shipment data into the Canada Customs Computer System, utilizing our direct EDI links into "ACROSS" (the Accelerated Customs Release Operations Support System).

Canada Customs PRE-RELEASE each shipment in their system, usually within an hour of receiving the PARS Clearance Request.

The Carrier reports to the pre-advised Customs Clearance Port and identifies each shipment by his PARS Cargo Control Number.

Canada Customs confirms that the pre-release documentation has been properly documented, received and processed by them.

Canada Customs release the shipment and advise the Carrier to proceed with the delivery of his shipment in Canada.
