EICS/EXCOL Bulletin - EICS II update

In 2013, the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development Canada (DFATD) announced the creation of the EICS II project to replace the current EICS and EXCOL applications with a single web-enabled platform.  The goal of the EICS II project is to streamline and modernize the import and export permit systems into a quicker, more efficient system.

More time is required to complete the EICS II system. During this time, both the EXCOL and EICS systems continue to be available to importers and exporters to serve the needs of Canadians and Canadian businesses.  Their functionality will remain the same and will continue to issue export and import permits as usual until the EICS II system is implemented.

As the EICS II project continues, we will send periodic updates. Also, please be sure to check our website regularly and review the FAQ for any questions you may have:
