Here is a weird question: does anyone know what customs agency you clear during Embarkation at the Port in Vancouver is it Canadian or American ?????

I do not think you clear any Customs/Immigration Dept. when boarding the ship in Vancouver. You should have cleared Canadian Immigration upon entry into Canada, either by land or air.

I'm curious. Why would you even want to know? I'm just so perplexed by some questions.

someone told me that Vancouver embarkation take a very very long time because of customs ....and I have never encountered that on any other cruise I have been on - thought it was a little weird so I thought I would ask my fellow experts ....sorry that you feel my question perplexed you

You will go through US immigration at the pier in Vancouver before embarking the ship.

US Customs and Immigration does pre-clearance in Vancouver for embarking guests. Canada Customs clears disembarking ships in Vancouver. The same applies for air travel in Vancouver.
