The CSCB:

Represents the interests of customs brokers to government departments and agencies, primarily the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), involved in regulating international trade.

Works with government and the private sector to develop new, innovative solutions to the future needs of the international trade community, as these needs are identified by our members and their clients.

Ensures that our members have access to timely, accurate and up-to-date information on technical, operational and business management issues.

Supports the education and professional development needs of our members through conferences, seminars, educational courses and the CCS (Certified Customs Specialist) designation.

The CSCB is one of the most authoritative, respected organizations in Canada's international trade community. The CSCB currently includes approximately 160 corporate members, over 3, 800 CCS (Certified Customs Specialist) designates, and more than 600 students on an annual basis.
