Canada Self Assessment (CSA) Fast Facts
Customers that ship to Canada are asking about CSA. These CSA Fast Facts should help:
- CSA - "Customs Self Assessment" is a Canada Customs initiative designed to streamline the customs process for low-risk shipments moving from the US to Canada.
Qualified Goods - To qualify for this process, Canada-destined goods must be of US origin. The carrier, the driver and the Canadian importer must also be CSA-certified.
- Certification - Our application for carrier certification has been approved. All of our cross-border drivers are being certified. Importers interested in applying for CSA certification should contact a Canada Customs office.
- Benefits to All Customers - Our CSA certification provides all of our customers an extra level of assurance that Roadway and Reimer are committed to the secure and expeditious transportation of every international shipment crossing our borders. In an ever-changing business environment, we continue to support all customs release types for our CSA and non-CSA customers alike.
- Benefits to CSA Customers - Some of the benefits to CSA-certified customers:
- Reduction in the cost of customs compliance by eliminating requirements for transactional entries.
- Increased certainty of expedited customs processing.
- Easier to meet customs obligations.
- No export documents required from the shipper for CSA shipments.
