Licensed Customs Brokerage Services in Calgary
A customs broker helps importers and exporters prepare and submit the information required for Canadian customs clearance. Canadian customs brokers are licensed by the Canada Border Services Agency. Under CBSA’s national licensing model, a licensed customs broker can transact business at customs offices across Canada.
For Calgary importers, that is useful because shipments may arrive by truck, air, rail, courier, or another transportation mode before moving through Alberta. A licensed customs broker can support the release process even when a shipment does not follow a simple point-to-point route.
Argo provides customs and brokerage support for commercial shipments, personal shipments, import services, export services, regulated goods, cargo status checking, and RPP bond applications.

Commercial Import Clearance
Argo helps Calgary businesses with commercial import clearance for goods used in resale, manufacturing, distribution, e-commerce, construction, industrial supply, and regular business operations.
Commercial clearance may involve supplier details, country of origin, product descriptions, HS tariff classification, customs duty, GST, import entry preparation, release documentation, and importer of record information.
Personal Import Clearance
Argo also helps individuals with personal import clearance. Personal
shipments may include personal goods, one-time imports, household items,
online purchases, or goods that require support with customs paperwork.
A personal importer may still need clear product details, value information, origin details, and help understanding customs documents before release.
