(Can be declared as In-Bond - if advised by CBSA, sometimes, they also give an inbond destination code to the client / Can also be declared as PARS) Although a Goods Astray shipment is different from a PARS shipment, the carrier will still need to provide a unique Cargo Control Number, as well as all other information normally required for an ACI Shipment including Shipper, Consignee and Commodity information.

As with all Informal Entries, no Customs Broker should be involved and the carrier will not receive an Transaction Number for the shipment. At the border, the driver should be prepared to show paperwork for the shipment that was exported, as well as any documentation that supports the load being undeliverable. If the highway carrier is unsure what documentation is needed to prove they are Goods Astray they should contact the CBSA port of arrival.
