Reporting of Exported Goods Regulations

The Reporting of Exported Goods Regulations were made by Her Excellency the Governor General in Council, pursuant to section 95 of the Customs Act. The regulations apply to goods that are exported from Canada and require exporters, carriers, and customs service providers to report certain types of goods.

The regulations define various terms such as "bulk goods", "commercial goods", "customs service provider", and "exporter". They also outline the classes of persons who are required to report goods that are exported, including exporters, carriers, and customs service providers.

The regulations require exporters to report goods in writing at an export reporting office, either immediately before exportation or on a monthly basis if the goods qualify as bulk goods or homogeneous goods. Carriers are also required to report certain types of goods, including goods that are imported into Canada and exported from Canada after being transported in transit through Canada.

The regulations exempt certain types of goods from reporting requirements, such as personal and household effects, commercial goods with a value of less than $2,000 Canadian, and goods that are part of a written arrangement made between the Government of Canada and another country.
