Monitoring Program for Softwood Lumber Products Shipments as of October 13th, 2015
Foreign Affairs and Trade Development Canada via Candadian Society of Customs Brokers Oct 13, 2015
The Softwood Lumber Agreement expired on October 12th, 2015. As such, for the month of October export measures will apply only to exports with shipment dates of October 1st to 12th at 11:59 PM. Any exports of softwood lumber products first manufactured in Canada and destined for the United States with shipment dates on or after October 13th, 2015 will no longer be subject to export measures. Consequently, following expiry of the SLA, the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development will no longer issue export allocations (quota) for softwood lumber products. Information related to the application of export charges can be found on the Canada Revenue Agency’s website by clicking here.
