Reporting of Exported Goods Regulations (SOR/2005-23)

Reporting by a Customs Service Provider

14 Goods that are exported by a customs service provider shall be reported in writing by the customs service provider at an export reporting office before the goods leave Canada if an officer, at the time of the exportation, suspects on reasonable grounds that they are being exported contrary to an Act of Parliament and, for that reason, requests that they be reported.

Oral Reporting of Goods

15 Notwithstanding anything in these Regulations, the following goods may, if they are exported, be reported orally at the export reporting office located closest to the place of exit of the goods:

• (a) a Canadian military conveyance that does not contain any goods or cargo, if the conveyance is not a restricted good;

• (b) goods that are the property of and are for the exclusive use of the Department of National Defence and that are being exported by that Department to its defence bases abroad or in support of Canadian Forces deployment operations; and

• (c) goods that are being exported because of a medical emergency, fire, flood or other disaster that threatens life, property or the environment.

Manner of Reporting Fishing Vessels

16 Each exportation, during a fishing season, of a commercial fishing vessel that is registered or licensed under the Canada Shipping Act need not be reported if the carrier, before the first exportation of the vessel during that fishing season, reports the vessel in writing to the chief officer of customs at an export reporting office.

Manner of Reporting Catch

17 All catch that is caught by a Canadian registered commercial fishing vessel in Canadian territorial waters and then delivered by that vessel to a port outside Canada, or delivered from that vessel to a foreign registered commercial fishing vessel bound for a port outside Canada, shall be reported in writing by the exporter to the chief officer of customs at an export reporting office, immediately on the return of the vessel to Canada.

Manner of Reporting Ferries

18 If a vessel is used by a carrier on a particular day solely or principally for the transportation of motor vehicles or passengers across international waters, the carrier shall, immediately on the return of the vessel to Canada after its last trip on that day, report the vessel in writing to the chief officer of customs at the export reporting office located closest to the place at which the vessel lands in Canada.

Manner of Reporting Conveyances

19 Any person who intends to permanently export a conveyance shall, before the exportation and in addition to making any other report required by these Regulations, provide documentation indicating the vehicle identification number (VIN) of the conveyance to the chief officer of customs at the export reporting office located closest to the place of exit of the conveyance.
