What is a Sublocation code?
A Sublocation code is a code for a CBSA-approved warehouse facility where a specific cargo report will be acquitted and the goods will be authorized to be delivered. The sublocation code is mandatory for In Bond shipments into Canada, as it tells CBSA exactly where the goods will be bonded to while they await release.
In ACI eManifest, the sublocation is required to be transmitted for all in-bond shipments. It is also advised to be transmitted for PARS that may fail and move in bond so that an amendment is not required at the border to allow the in-bond move. Carriers using CrimsonLogic's Next Gen platform can find a sublocation code by typing either the name of the warehouse or the code itself. CBSA also maintains a list of approved sufferance warehouses:
