What is the current procedure for obtaining financial security?

The current process is detailed in the CBSA Memorandum D17-1-8 and is a completely manual/paper-based application requiring wet-signatures. 

This is currently done by working directly with a surety broker. For more information on surety brokers, please visit  Surety Association of Canada (SAC) website.
