Description
The CBSA’s Canadian Export Reporting System (CERS) and eManifest Portal are currently unavailable for some clients.
The CBSA is actively working to resolve this issue, but we currently do not have an estimated time for its resolution. Further updates to this bulletin will be provided when additional information is available. We regret the inconvenience and thank you for your continued cooperation.
Action Required
Please refer to the contingency procedures outlined below or be prepared to resume transmission once the system is available.
The procedures to follow during system outages/delays can be found at: http://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/eservices/contingency-urgence/menu-eng.html.
For highway carriers, if you are proceeding to the border during this outage, please ensure all drivers are provided with two copies of the correct paperwork to present at arrival. The CBSA will accept paper documentation during an outage and no monetary penalties will be issued to external clients for failure to transmit required data during a scheduled or an unscheduled outage and for the 2 hours following system resumption.
