Exporting to the United States – A Team Canada Inc Publication

9.1 U.S. Border Security

After the events of September 11, 2001, Canada and the United States signed the Smart Border Declaration and Action Plan, which identifies 32 initiatives that promote bi-national cooperation in the areas of border security and management. These initiatives reflect the need to ensure the safety of the public and the security of both countries' economies.

Certain programs, such as the Free and Secure Trade program (FAST), as well as new and pending legislation on both sides of the border, will provide exporters with new options and new requirements. Successful exporters will recognize the importance of being fully informed and of keeping up to date as changes are implemented. You'll find more information about the Smart Border Declaration on Foreign Affairs Canada's Canada-United States Relations Web site.
