eManifest & ACI Requirements, ExplainedeManifest与ACI要求详解

Last reviewed: June 2026 · 5 minute read最后审核：2026年6月 · 约5分钟阅读

Advance Commercial Information (ACI) — delivered through the CBSA's eManifest systems — is electronic cargo data that must reach the CBSA before goods arrive in Canada. If the data is late or wrong, cargo doesn't move, and penalties land on whoever was responsible for transmitting. Here's who files what, and when.预先商业信息（ACI）——通过CBSA的eManifest系统传输——是货物抵达加拿大之前必须到达CBSA的电子货物数据。数据迟报或错误，货物就不能移动，罚款落在负责传输的一方头上。以下说明谁报什么、何时报。

Who transmits what, by mode各运输方式：谁传输什么

Mode方式	Who files申报方	General deadline一般时限
Marine海运	Ocean carrier (cargo & conveyance data)海运承运人（货物与运输工具数据）	24 hours before loading at the foreign port境外港口装船前24小时
Air空运	Air carrier航空承运人	4 hours before arrival (or at departure on short routes)抵达前4小时（短航线为起飞时）
Highway公路	Trucking carrier卡车承运人	1 hour before reaching the border抵达边境前1小时
Rail铁路	Rail carrier铁路承运人	2 hours before arrival at the border抵达边境前2小时
Consolidated freight拼箱货物	Freight forwarder (house bill data)货运代理（分提单数据）	Same pre-arrival timeframes as the mode与运输方式相同的抵达前时限

Where importers fit: you typically don't transmit ACI yourself — but your release depends on the carrier's and forwarder's data being on file and matching your customs entry. Mismatched house bills are a classic cause of containers sitting released-but-unmovable.进口商的角色：您通常不亲自传输ACI——但您的放行取决于承运人和货代的数据已在档且与您的报关单匹配。分提单不匹配是集装箱"已放行却动不了"的经典原因。

Carrier (SCAC) codes appear at the front of master bill numbers and throughout eManifest data. The majors on the China–Canada trade:承运人（SCAC）代码出现在主提单号开头和eManifest数据中。中加航线主要承运人：

Carrier承运人	SCAC / B/L prefixSCAC / 提单前缀
MSC — Mediterranean Shipping	MEDU
Maersk	MAEU
CMA CGM	CMDU
COSCO Shipping Lines	COSU
Evergreen Marine	EGLV
ONE — Ocean Network Express	ONEY
OOCL	OOLU
SM Line	SMLM

What late or wrong filings cost迟报或错报的代价

ACI violations are enforced through AMPS administrative penalties — late or missing pre-arrival data can draw penalties in the thousands of dollars per occurrence, and repeat contraventions escalate. The operational cost is usually worse: held cargo, missed rail cutoffs, and demurrage stacking while data gets corrected.ACI违规通过AMPS行政处罚执行——抵达前数据迟报或缺失每次可被处以数千加元罚款，重复违规会升级。运营成本通常更糟：货物被扣、错过铁路截单时间，数据更正期间滞期费不断累积。

How we keep this off your desk我们如何让您省心

We verify carrier and house-bill transmissions are on file before vessels arrive船舶抵达前核实承运人和分提单数据已传输在档
Our entries are matched to the manifest data, so release isn't held up by mismatches我们的申报与舱单数据匹配，放行不会因不匹配而延误
For cross-border trucking we coordinate the carrier's eManifest alongside the PARS entry跨境卡车运输中，我们协调承运人的eManifest与PARS申报同步

Educational overview only — transmission rules and timeframes are set by CBSA and change; carriers may apply earlier internal cutoffs. Verify current requirements for your shipment or ask our team.仅供学习参考——传输规则和时限由CBSA制定且会变化；承运人可能有更早的内部截止时间。请就您的货物核实现行要求或咨询我们的团队。

FAQ常见问题

Frequently asked questions常见问题

What is the difference between ACI and ACE?ACI和ACE有什么区别？▼

ACI (Advance Commercial Information) is the CBSA's pre-arrival cargo data requirement for goods entering Canada, transmitted through eManifest. ACE is the US equivalent, run by CBP for goods entering the United States. A truck doing a cross-border round trip deals with both systems — one per direction — and they don't share data with each other.ACI（Advance Commercial Information，预先商业信息）是CBSA对进入加拿大货物的抵达前申报数据要求，通过eManifest传输。ACE则是美国的对应系统，由美国海关与边境保护局（CBP）管理，适用于进入美国的货物。跑跨境往返的卡车两套系统都要打交道——每个方向各一套——而且两者之间并不共享数据。

Do I need to file eManifest myself as an importer?作为进口商，我需要自己申报eManifest吗？▼

Generally no — the transmission obligation sits with carriers and, for consolidated freight, freight forwarders. But your release still depends on their data being on file and matching your customs entry, so "not my filing" doesn't mean "not my problem." Someone should be verifying the match before arrival; a broker can typically do this as part of pre-arrival clearance.一般不需要——传输义务在承运人身上，拼箱货则在货运代理身上。但您的放行仍取决于他们的数据是否已经备案并与您的报关单相符，所以"不是我申报"并不等于"与我无关"。抵达之前应当有人核对两者是否匹配；报关行通常可以把这项核对作为抵达前清关服务的一部分来做。

What is the 24-hour rule for ocean shipments to Canada?发往加拿大的海运货物的"24小时规则"是什么？▼

For marine cargo, CBSA requires the ocean carrier's ACI data before the container is loaded at the foreign port — the commonly cited window is 24 hours pre-loading, though carriers apply their own earlier documentation cutoffs. For importers the practical effect is upstream: your supplier's shipping instructions and invoice details need to be final days before the vessel sails, not after.对于海运货物，CBSA要求船公司在集装箱于外国港口装船之前提交ACI数据——通常的说法是装船前24小时，不过各船公司自定的文件截止时间往往更早。对进口商而言，实际影响体现在上游：供应商的托运指示和发票信息必须在开船前几天就定稿，而不是开船之后再补。

Can a truck cross into Canada without eManifest?卡车没有eManifest能进入加拿大吗？▼

Not in the normal course — the carrier's ACI eManifest must be on file with CBSA before the truck reaches the border. Arriving without it risks the driver being turned around or delayed, and AMPS administrative penalties against the carrier. Note that eManifest and the broker's PARS release request are separate filings; a border crossing needs both.正常情况下不行——承运人的ACI eManifest必须在卡车抵达边境之前向CBSA完成备案。没有备案就抵达，司机可能被劝返或延误，承运人还可能面临AMPS行政处罚。请注意，eManifest与报关行的PARS放行申请是两项独立的申报；顺利过境两者缺一不可。

Why is my container "released" but the terminal won't let it go?为什么我的集装箱已经"放行"，码头却不放货？▼

Customs release is only one of several gates. Carrier holds (unpaid freight or original bill of lading not surrendered), terminal holds, and manifest mismatches — classically a house bill that doesn't line up with the master — can each block pickup after CBSA has released. Someone needs to check all hold types daily, because free time burns while any one of them is open.海关放行只是几道关卡中的一道。船公司扣留（运费未付或正本提单未交回）、码头扣留、舱单不符——最典型的是货代提单与船东提单对不上——都可能在CBSA放行之后继续卡住提货。需要有人每天检查所有类型的扣留状态，因为只要还有任何一项未解除，免堆期就在照常消耗。
