The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) Assessment and Revenue Management (CARM) project is changing the way that commercial goods are imported into Canada. Signing up for the CARM Client Portal is the best way to prepare and be ready for these changes, plus it allows users to view their business numbers, apply for new business numbers, make payment of duties and taxes, view their statement of accounts with CBSA, and much more.

On this episode of the Beyond Borders Podcast, we are joined by Sara Hiebert, Account Manager at Buckland. Sara walks listeners through the steps to easily get registered for the CARM Client Portal.

The new USMCA / CUSMA / T-MEC trade agreement comes into effect on July 1, 2020, and it can be overwhelming for importers to consider the changes set to take place.

There are several significant changes from NAFTA to this new agreement, and importers will need to ensure they are informed so that they can ensure that they are maximizing cost savings, and protecting themselves from potential risks of non-compliance.
