What is the Pre-arrival Review System (PARS)?
The Pre-arrival Review System (PARS, for short) is a Canadian Federal Government customs program that allows importers, or customs brokers like AIT acting on their behalf, to submit cargo information to the Canada Border Services Agency for review and processing before their goods arrive in Canada. This state-of-the-art technology streamlines the flow of freight across the border. Learn more at pcb.ca.
