ACI eHBL 195 – In the scenario of personal effects, FCL shipment with only the issuing Master Bill of Lading, and the CBSA requests to have the true shipper/consignee details, can you issue an eManifest in this case under CY terminal, or would you need to move to a bonded location first?

ACI eHBL 274 – We have a quick question regarding specific eManifest filing requirements, if any, for cargo of Canadian origin being returned to Canada.
