Simplify your Canadian customs from the start
Fast-track your Canada customs entries and filings
Canada Customs Invoice (CCI)
Avoid freight delays by properly completing your commercial invoice and/or CCI. Our experts can help to ensure all the comprehensive delivery details are in place before submitting to the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) for review.
Certificates of Origin
Certificates of origin are key for duty savings within Canada's numerous free trade agreements. We go beyond mere documentation, thoroughly examining these agreements to identify duty reduction or exemption opportunities.
Bill of Lading (BOL)
Your BOL is more than a receipt for goods, it also represents the movement of deliveries and points of transshipment between parties. Minimise risks with expert oversight to verify accuracy, compliance and completeness of these essential documents.
Manifest or Cargo Control Document
Since these documents play a vital role in your customs clearance process, providing precise information is key. Get help with manifest and cargo control documents to ensure your carriers can deliver an accurate list of contents to CBSA.
