The Canada Revenue Agency continues to issue the required business number (BN9). The CBSA has taken over RM account-related services.
Until October 2024:
- to register for a new import-export program account (RM), complete form BSF947: Request for a CBSA Import/Export Program Account
- to submit a maintenance request for existing RM accounts, complete form BSF948: Request for Change(s) to Existing CBSA Import/Export Program Account
Please register your RM in advance to avoid the storage fees, as CBSA can process it in up to 10 business days. For non-resident importers, as per our practice, this could take longer.
If you have an urgent shipment and your RM account is not yet ready, please contact us at Email: info@argocustoms.com for assistance.
