CBSA SYSTEMS MAINTENANCE OUTAGE

September 6, 2024

The Canada Border Services Agency has notified the Mohawk Council of Akwesasne that there is agency-wide maintenance scheduled for its data systems and website during the early morning of Sept. 7, 2024.

The outage may require manual entry of data for traffic through the port of entry. The maintenance outage is expected to take place during the non-peak hours of 4 a.m. – 8 a.m. in order to minimize delays.

The Cornwall Port of Entry has planned for this weekend’s increase in traffic due to the Akwesasne Powwow with extra staff available, and with vehicles larger than pickup trucks being diverted to the commercial lane.

While CBSA hopes to minimize delays, please be prepared for longer wait times and ensure adequate travel time if you are planning to transit through the CBSA port of entry.
