PARTNERS IN PROTECTION (PIP)
Does Front of Line Processing & Reduced Border Wait Times Interest You?
Pacific Customs Brokers is offering a seminar on Partners in Protection (PIP). This seminar will be of interest to importers, business owners, compliance managers, operation managers, warehouse managers, freight consolidators, foreign manufacturers and carriers. The Partners in Protection Program is a voluntary commercial security program that creates partnerships between the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and companies that are directly involved in international trade.
PIP members commit to securing the supply chain by complying with physical infrastructure and procedural security measures, undergoing a site validation and exchanging information with the CBSA. If you are importing into Canada and the USA, we offer a full day of combined sessions covering PIP and Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT).
