What is CARM?
At a quick glance, this project signifies a transformative journey spanning multiple years. It’s a relentless dedication to enhancing and streamlining trade processes, all while championing the twin pillars of efficiency and unwavering adherence to regulations. It’s a reflection of the commitment to making a resounding positive impact on dynamic the world of commerce.
The CBSA Accounting and Revenue Management project (CARM) by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) represents an exciting online portal that embodies a passion for trade innovation. This platform empowers Canadian importers and dedicated customers brokers with cutting-edge tools to effortlessly classify goods, duty and tax calculations, submit e-declarations, make e-payments, and access real-time account details at a breeze.

Plus, it means we can finally say goodbye to those repetitive information requirements. And let’s not forget, if you’re an integral part of international trade and harbor aspirations to bring goods into Canada, this is a mandatory game-changer you absolutely cannot afford to overlook.
