Temporary Importation of Vessels
2011-12-06
This memorandum has been revised to update the contact information for the Canada Border Services Agency and the Canadian Transportation Agency.
In addition, paragraph 40 of the memorandum has been revised to reflect an exception to the rule that once a vessel leaves Canadian waters and goes International, the Coasting Trade Licence is no longer valid and will be cancelled by the CBSA. The exception to this rule are tankers and cruise vessels that have as part of its licence conditions, potential stops at foreign ports, where the last leg of the transportation is destined for a Canadian location.
