A 9. Vessels arriving in ballast may continue to present a paper A6 conveyance report on arrival. Q 10. Will the marine carrier, or their agent, continue to provide LINKINGBRIDGES (CBSA) with the Pre-Arrival Notification (PAN) even when the A6 conveyance report is transmitted 96 hours prior to arrival, of the vessel, at the first Canadian Port of Call? A 10. While many of the information requirements on the PAN mirror the A6 conveyance report, the implementation of ACI does not change the Pre-Arrival Notification process. The marine carrier, or their agent, will continue to provide the PAN to the local Customs office 96 hours prior to arrival of the vessel, in the same manner as today. The complete inward report package, e.g., Form E311 Customs Declaration Card; Form E1 Ships Stores Declaration; the Form Y14 Crew’s Effects Declaration; etc., may be presented to on arrival.
