Customs Specialist (Evenings)

You will work across the customs-entry process, from reviewing shipment information and determining tariff treatment to completing entries and helping resolve questions from clients and internal teams.

During your shift, you may be:

• Releasing, rating, classifying and accounting for entries moving by air, ocean, truck or other transportation modes
• Researching the correct HS classification for a new product or part
• Determining whether a Chapter 99 provision applies
• Confirming the correct GST or HST exemption, Order in Council or other customs treatment
• Assessing whether excise tax or SIMA duties are payable
• Preparing a temporary or voluntary entry
• Checking whether a shipment meets Participating Government Agency requirements
• Reviewing permits and supporting documentation
• Adding properly classified products and parts to a client’s customs database
• Reviewing free trade certificates and explaining what is missing or needs correction
• Answering customs questions from clients, operations staff and brokerage colleagues
• Helping resolve release or rating issues before they become overnight delays
• Supporting the compliance team with research or file review
• Prioritizing urgent files while continuing to protect accuracy

Some files will be routine. Others will require research, judgment and a careful reading of the regulations. In either case, your role is to complete the work correctly, communicate clearly and help the shipment move without exposing the client to unnecessary risk.
