Partners in Protection program

From: Canada Border Services Agency

Partners in Protection (PIP) is a voluntary program with no membership fee where businesses and the CBSA work together to enhance border and trade chain security.

As a member, you will receive benefits that will expedite cross border clearance.

When you join, the CBSA will:

  • guide you through the process of adding security measures, if needed

We can help keep you up to date with the latest security technology and save your company time at the border.

  • Expedited border clearances by using designated Free and Secure Trade (FAST) lanes
