1. Overview of PACT

  ㅇ PACT Program : The Pre-load Air Cargo Targeting(PACT) Program identifies and

       mitigates high-risk air cargo shipments before they’re transported to Canada.

       Before loading cargo onto an aircraft bound for Canada, air carriers must submit cargo

       data to Transport Canada using the PACT System.

  ㅇ Applicable cargo : PACT will be applied to cargo on flights from outside Canada to an

       aerodrome located in Canada.

  ㅇ Transmission information: Shipper's name/address, consignee's name/address, cargo

       description, total quantity of cargo, total gross weight of cargo, Air waybill Number 

       (Master/House)

  ㅇ Destination: Transport Canada

  ㅇ Transmission time : When completion of AWB acceptance, the relevant data is

       automatically transmitted (Transport of Canada approval is required before cargo

        loading)

  ㅇTransmission method: Master/House Air waybill information provided by forwarders                                

      are transmitted in the form of FWB/FHL through our system. 

 

  ㅇ Effective Date : April 1st, 2025   (Change of Effective date)

delays in holding and customs clearance during transportation.
Delays in receipt of air waybills may cause delays in TC's approval and may result in OFLD.

or not approved for one House air waybill, and the cargo with pending approval will be transportable
after completion of complementary measures and approval for TC's additional requirements.
