YOUR CANADIAN MARKET ENTRY PARTNER
Local Knowledge Changes the Experience
Regulations are only one part of entering Canada. The harder part is knowing who to call, how things actually work and what to do when something does not go to plan. DDP Canada gives foreign companies a local point of contact to help navigate those practical realities.
The Goal Isn't Registration. It's Revenue
A Business Number and CARM registration are only the infrastructure. The real objective is to give your company a practical path to sell, import and grow in Canada - while making it easier for Canadian customers to buy from you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to the questions foreign companies ask most often about becoming a Non-Resident Importer and registering through CARM.
What is a Non-Resident Importer in Canada?
A Non-Resident Importer is a foreign company that imports goods into Canada in its own name without first incorporating a Canadian company.
Do I need to incorporate in Canada first?
No. In many cases, a foreign company can establish a Canadian import presence and register through CARM withou creating a separate Canadian corporation.
What is CARM and why do I need it?
CARM stands for CBSA assessment and Revenue Management, a digital system introduced by the Canada Border Services Agency to automate and modernize how duties and taxes are collected on commercial goods imported into Canada. Without registration, you cannot import into Canada.

No. DDP Canada specializes in Canadian market entry, importer setup and CARM registration. When customs brokerage is required, we help connect clients with experienced licensed Canadian customs brokers suited to their needs.
Can you help after our CARM registration is complete?
Yes. Once your importer setup is complete, DDP Canada can remain your Canadian point of contact. Through affiliated companies and trusted partners, we can help coordinate transportation and logistics, HR services, back-office support, sales development and other resources needed to operate and grow in Canada.
How long does the setup process take?
Timing depends on the company, documentation and government processing. We help keep the process organized and moving as efficiently as possible. Expect two to four weeks to complete the CARM registration process.
Can we start with CARM setup and add other services later?
