PRESENTATION OVERVIEW
3
• Electronic warehouse arrival certification message (WACM) is an inland
Cargo arrival notification
• Transmitted by warehouse operators who are registered participants in the
CBSA’s Release Notification System (RNS), using an Electronic Data
Interchange (EDI) method, when commercial goods physically arrive at the
inland sufferance warehouse to which they are destined
• On May 6, 2015 the requirement for WACM became mandatory under an
amendment to the Customs Sufferance Warehouses Regulations
• This requirement replaces the current manual arrival and transfer of liability
process at inland destinations that requires warehouse operators to endorse
the cargo control document, bill of lading, waybill or other similar document
provided by the carrier.
• This mandatory requirement applies to operators of all types of CBSA-
licensed sufferance warehouses. Following a 45 business day
implementation period, non-compliant warehouse operators may be subject
to penalties starting on July 10, 2015.

• Below are some scenarios and the messages CBSA will

WACM Scenarios
• Is WACM required for Flying Trucks?– Yes. Flying Trucks are currently exempt from transmitting
eManifest cargo, therefore the Warehouse Operator might get a
“ERC 01 – no CCN on file”
• Is WACM required for non-commercial goods
(casual goods) arriving at sufferance
warehouse?– Yes if the non-commercial goods enter Canada on a commercial
conveyance (i.e. Settler/Personal effects, retail merchandise sold
to an individual and shipped to Canada)Note: These goods will only be exempt from Advance Trade Data (ATD)
7
WACM Scenarios (continued)
• Who transmits WACM, the primary or the
secondary warehouse?
– WACM is sent by the warehouse operator SLOC who is
indicated on the cargo as the final destination. The Warehouse
Operator can use the services of a third party service provider.
• Is WACM required for split-shipments?
– No. WACM will only be required on the CCN after the arrival of
the last split.
