Canada Border Services Agency

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) is responsible for overseeing the importation and transportation of intoxicating liquors within Canada, ensuring compliance with federal regulations. Their guidelines outline the procedures for commercial importers and carriers, detailing requirements for reporting, exemptions, and penalties related to the importation of alcoholic beverages.

The agency enforces the Importation of Intoxicating Liquors Act, which specifies who may legally import and transport these goods, including provisions for specific types of liquor such as spirits, wine, and beer. Additionally, the CBSA manages the Excise Act, which imposes duties on imported beer and other alcoholic products, maintaining a structured approach to alcohol regulation in the country.
