Friday, October 4th, marks Day 1 of the CARM blackout transition period in which importers previously not registered will be unable to access it until the morning of implementation. The CIIT voted down a motion to further delay it. With that vote concluded, the last hurdle to CARM’s implementation has passed, and the new system will come into effect on October 21st.

We Can Help.

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) intends to release the CBSA Assessment and Revenue Management (CARM) system in 2024. This new system will create a fundamental shift for Canadian commercial importers, as when it goes live, those business entities will need to manage the entire financial element of their imports, including taxes, post-entry corrections, and financial securities. 

For all the details you need to know about CARM and the services PCB can provide to support you both when it goes live and during this time of transition, please read on or fill out the form on the right to have one of our CARM specialists get in touch.

CARM Payments

For many importers, avoiding the added work involved in managing your financials is the entire reason they began working with a broker in the first place. Our CARM Payments service allows PCB to facilitate and process your financial responsibilities and importer accounting through your business’s CARM Client Portal.

This Service Includes:
  • The monthly payment of duties and taxes owed within your CARM Client Portal*
  • An easy-to-understand statement report
  • Optional reconciliation of the current month’s SOA transactions for high-volume importers using multiple brokers

*Based on the account balance statement shown in the CARM Client Portal, CBSA processing times may impact the amount owed.
