Customs Brokerage Agency Agreement

Please review and sign to authorize Cargo Customs Solutions Inc.

The purpose of this Agreement is to authorize Cargo Customs Solutions Inc. (Licensed Canadian Customs Broker, Business Number Import/Export Account: 705838969RM0001) to transact the following business with the Canada Border Services Agency, on behalf of the Principal (Importer):

a) Accounting and payment of duties & taxes in respect of imported goods released under section 32 of the Customs Act at all customs offices in Canada.
Only a licensed customs broker can be authorized to act as an agent under section 32 of the Customs Act. Importers are responsible for payment of duties and taxes directly to CBSA on the CARM Client Portal.

b) Accessing the importer’s CARM account and processing entries via the CBSA CARM portal.

c) Processing of CAD (Customs Adjustment / Correction) adjustments.

d) Assistance with Canadian Participating Government Agencies (PGA) regulations compliance.

e) Appointing sub-agents.

An agent (customs broker) is considered in law to represent the principal (importer) in such a way as to be able to affect the principal’s legal position. However, the principal remains liable for any transactions completed on its behalf by its agent.

The Agreement is valid continuously from the date it is signed. The Principal may cancel this authority at any time by providing written notice to Cargo Customs Solutions Inc.

I have read and agree to the Customs Brokerage Agency Agreement above, and I am authorized to sign on behalf of the business named in Step 1.
