With 2021 coming to a close, Russell A, Farrow (Farrow) would like to take this opportunity to remind our clients that the CARM Client Portal is now accessible to all importers and you should set up your CARM Client Portal (CCP). As Release 2 is scheduled for Spring 2022, the CCP will include:
- Release prior to payment – All importers will be required to post security to participate in the Release Prior to Payment (RPP) privilege program. Importers will no longer be able to use their customs broker’s RPP security to clear shipments
- Commercial accounting declarations – The CAD will serve as the digital document to account for imported goods into Canada, replacing the current customs coding (B3) and request for adjustment (B2) forms.
- Billing Cycles – CARM Release 2 will introduce new billing cycles and alignment of payment due dates of importers.
Farrow Consulting can provide assistance in registering your Business on the CARM Client Portal. Farrow will provide step by step guidance and help to set up of your portal access. If you would like assistance please reach out to compliance.consulting@farrow.com or to your Client Partnering Representative.
