[[Image:Csaleadsheetempty.jpg‎|thumb|right|200px|CSA Empty Truck Conveyance]]For drivers who do not have a FAST or CDRP card, employed by a company that is CSA Approved, you must follow the fore mentioned 3 steps, and provide an ACI eManifest lead sheet to the officer.
;Creating an ATA-Carnet
If a company is CSA approved and the driver has a valid FAST or CDRP card meeting existing requirements for CSA release, but traveling with an empty conveyance. A CSA lead sheet must be provided declaring the wording 'Empty Truck'.<ref>https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/publications/dm-md/d23/d23-2-1-eng.html</ref>
:In ACE eManifest there is presently no functionality to declare a Carnet Shipment. As such, highway carriers can simply leave the Carnet Shipment off when preparing their manifest, and have the driver verbally declare the shipment and present the Carnet document to the officer. If there are no other shipments on the truck, it is recommended that the carrier still prepare an empty truck manifest so that prior notice requirements are still met.
 
;Creating Military Goods
:Department of Defense Shipments are not required to be (and cannot be) reported on an ACE eManifest. If the carrier has other shipments aboard they should report all other freight on their ACE eManifest, leaving the DOD shipment off. If the only freight loaded on the truck is the DOD shipment, it is still recommended that the carrier create an "empty truck" ACE eManifest in order to notify CBP to expect the driver's arrival.
 
;Creating Instruments of International Traffic Under 10.41b (CHEP)
:Presently there is no functionality to create Instruments of International Traffic that qualify under a 10.41b such as CHEP pallets. As a result it's recommended to create an ACE Manifest without a shipment (if there are no other shipments on the ACE).
