CBSA’s new CARM system is now in operation

On Monday October 21, 2024 the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) officially launched externally the CBSA Assessment and Revenue Management (CARM) system, which is now the official system to use to assess and pay duties and taxes on imported goods.

The launch of CARM should not affect wait times at the border. The system used by officers at the border to determine the eligibility of commercial goods for entry into Canada will not be changing. Additionally, the CBSA has a detailed contingency plan in place to ensure the continuation of commercial activities in the event of any technical issues.

As of October 14, 2024, almost 100,000 individuals and businesses are registered to use CARM including 97% of the top 3,000 importers by value and 95% of top 3,000 importers by volume.
