Making the Border Smarter and More Secure

eManifest is a transformational initiative that will modernize and improve cross-border commercial processes.

When fully implemented, eManifest will require carriers, freight forwarders and importers in all modes of transportation (air, marine, highway and rail) to electronically transmit advance commercial information to the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) within prescribed mode-specific time frames.

On February 15, 2014, proposed eManifest regulatory amendments were published in Part I of the Canada Gazette.
