Customs brokerage

Clear customs quickly, stay compliant, keep moving.

Every shipment that crosses a border has to clear customs, and getting it wrong is expensive. A missed declaration or a compliance slip means delayed goods, tied-up inventory, and costly Administrative Monetary Penalty System (AMPS) penalties. Getting it right, every time, takes a team that knows the rules inside out.

That’s what Mantoria does. As your experienced partner in customs brokerage, our certified experts make sure your shipments clear quickly and stay 100% compliant, on both sides of the border and around the world, so you can focus on more important things, like growing your business.

One team for customs on both sides of the border

Importing and exporting shouldn’t mean juggling a different broker for every country. Mantoria handles clearance into Canada and works with an extensive network of global partners to clear foreign customs wherever your goods are headed.

With more than 250 combined years of experience and certified specialists in locations across Canada, we have in-depth knowledge of customs legislation, tariffs, and procedures to keep your goods moving. Whatever you’re clearing, you’re in good hands.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a customs broker to import into Canada?

You’re not legally required to use one, but a broker saves you from the delays and AMPS penalties that come with getting declarations, tariffs, or compliance wrong. Our Canada customs team handles it all so your goods clear quickly and correctly.

Can Mantoria assist with US and Canadian customs clearance?

Yes. Mantoria provides customs solutions for shipments entering Canada and coordinates US customs clearance through our trusted customs brokerage partners. We also support international shipments through our global network of logistics and customs experts.

What is CARM, and do I need to register?

CARM is the CBSA’s Assessment and Revenue Management system, which changes how importers manage duties and taxes with the agency. If you import into Canada, it affects you, our CARM service handles registration and your ongoing obligations.

I'm based outside Canada, can I still sell to Canadian customers?

Yes. By becoming a non resident importer, you can import and sell into Canada as though you were a local business, without establishing a Canadian entity.

I import in high volumes. Can I manage clearance myself?

If you move more than 500 shipments into Canada a year, our EZ self clearance program gives your team complete control over the process while keeping you compliant.
