Recommended Posts

Us residents, just wondering if we go thru customs and immigration at every canada port. Itinerary starts in new york ,sea day,  then hits Saint John, Halifax, sea day, Charlottetown, Sydney, sea day, then boston..etc

 

So do we have customs and immigration at every canada port or just the first one?

 

Does it take alot of time?

 

thanks!

Generally, there is customs and immigration at the port of entry, but not again after having already been admitted. Suppose you were to take a Great Lakes cruise with the following itinerary:

1. Toronto, Ontario

2. Port Colborne, Ontario

3. Cleveland, Ohio

4. Detroit, Michigan

5. Parry Sound, Ontario

6. Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan

7. Thunder Bay, Ontario

You would then anticipate customs and immigration inspection at ports 3, 5, 6, and 7. Note that customs and immigration might not interview every passenger, but the vessel and its passengers are subject to inspection each time it enters a country.
