Single Window Initiative, Integrated Import Declaration (IID) - Regulated Commodities - Data Element Matching Criteria Table

The Single Window Initiative (SWI) enables Importers and Customs Brokers to use Service Option 911 to provide an electronic Integrated Import Declaration (IID) to the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) for the nine Participating Government Departments and Agencies (PGAs). The IID can be for both non-regulated and regulated commodities.

Trade Chain Partners (TCPs) can use the Data Element Matching Criteria Tables to identify commodities regulated by a particular PGA program.

The Regulated Commodities Data Element Matching Criteria Tables consist of two components: A Boolean logic statement and a set of data elements related to each program administered by the Participating Government Departments and Agencies (PGAs). A match between the two confirms that a particular commodity is regulated by a specific program.
