Yes, in Eastern Canada, domestic passenger vessels are billed quarterly by DFO’s Marine Services Fees Billing, Collection and Compliance (MSFBCC) office while foreign flag cruise ships are billed on a maximum number of three calls at Canadian ports in a thirty (30) day period. This pamphlet refers to MNSF rules related to the latter only.
