Expedite and simplify filing your cargo manifest for shipments imported into Canada. As part of the Customs Action Plan implemented by the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency, all ocean cargo and conveyance into Canada must be reported electronically to the CBSA 24 hours in advance of sailing.

The IES ACI Web application is certified by and meets the requirements of the Canadian Border Services Agency's Advance Commercial Information initiative. With fast online authorizations, avoid clearance delays and provide superior service to customers.

File and manage bills of lading securely. Increase efficiency by pre-populating fields with frequently used information including shipper, consignees, delivery and notify parties.

Data encryption ensures that all sensitive manifest information is transferred securely and directly to Canadian Customs with encrypted shipper and consignee information. Receive CBSA confirmation moments after submission. Status messages are displayed in the IES ACI system to confirm file acceptance. Any discrepancies are quickly identified and displayed, allowing easy correction and quick resubmission.

Enter container events such as ‘Arrival Notice Sent To The Customer’, ‘Damage Survey Completed’, ‘Grounded Off Train’, ‘US Department of Agriculture Hold For Fumigation’ and ‘Vessel Delayed’.

Powerful search functionality locates existing voyages, containers, purchase orders, bills of lading and departures. To help monitor volume and highlight filing errors, view a summary by CBSA status to view the number of files processed, deleted, pending, rejected, waiting or not submitted. Each status category is linked to those filings for in-depth review.

Implement in a matter of days using the intuitive Web interface or use flexible EDI, XML and flat file adapters to integrate IES Canadian ACI directly with current systems.
