Understanding CUSMA Compliance Workshop

March 4, 2026 8:30 AM - 12:00 PM (PST)

Description


World Trade Centre Vancouver is pleased to partner with the Richmond Chamber for a half-day, in-person workshop designed for B.C. exporters. This timely session will help you better understand and apply CUSMA trade rules, including tariffs, tax remission programs, and origin documentation.


Learn directly from a customs lawyer and a licensed customs broker, and gain real-world insights into managing North American trade. Through interactive presentations and practical examples, you’ll leave with practical tools to improve compliance, reduce trade-related risks, and enhance competitiveness.


Who Should Attend:

  • Export-ready SMEs across all sectors
  • Trade professionals and logistics managers
  • Business owners and advisors navigating cross-border trade


Why CUSMA Compliance Matters:

CUSMA, the trade agreement between Canada, the U.S., and Mexico, replaced NAFTA and introduced new compliance requirements for exporters. Staying up to date is essential to maintaining preferential treatment and avoiding costly penalties.

Proper compliance helps you:

  • Avoid costly tariffs and penalties
  • Qualify for duty-free treatment
  • Ensure smooth customs clearance
  • Maintain trust and competitiveness with U.S. partners


This workshop is an opportunity to stay ahead of regulatory changes and protect your bottom line.

Trade Services Panel:

Explore government and nonprofit services available to support your export goals. This panel features experts from Export Navigator, Trade Commissioner Service (TCS), Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), and World Trade Centre Vancouver, who will highlight practical programs to help your business:

  • Diversify into new markets
  • Reduce duties and tariffs
  • Navigate today’s evolving global trade landscape
  • Access funding options, export support programs, and hands-on guidance
