This memorandum has been revised to provide more precise policy direction to commercial air carriers. This update clarifies who is required to provide Advance Passenger Information/ Passenger Name Record (API/PNR) data to the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), clarifies exceptional circumstances where API/PNR data may not be required, clarifies the definition of a crew member, and reflects the implementation of the CBSA’s Air Carrier Support Centre (ACSC). In addition, the embedded links have been updated as necessary.

The memorandum is available in its entirety on the CBSA website:
D2-5-11, Guidelines for Commercial Air Carriers for the Processing of Prescribed Traveller Information
