ACI eManifest Status Guide
A visual guide to understanding the processing stages of your CBSA eManifests, from Draft to Release.
Overview
In BorderConnect, every ACI eManifest displays a visual status bar that represents its current stage with the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).
Statuses update automatically when:
- You transmit data to CBSA.
- CBSA sends a response (Accept/Reject).
- A broker certifies the release (PARS).
- The driver arrives at the border.

Pre-Arrival Statuses
Draft
The manifest is created but not yet transmitted to CBSA.
- Action: Click Sync with CBSA to submit it.
Transmitted to CBSA
The manifest has been sent and is awaiting a response.
- Action: Wait 2–4 minutes. Do not resend immediately.
CBSA Returned Error (Rejected)
CBSA rejected the data due to missing or incorrect information.
- Action: Check the History/Status Messages section for the specific error message.
- Fix: Correct the data and click Sync with CBSA.
Accepted / On File Statuses
On File With CBSA
The manifest is officially accepted by CBSA.
- Timing: The 1-hour clock starts now.
- PARS: If this is a PARS shipment, you are still waiting for the broker.
- Non-PARS: If this is an Empty or In-Bond trip, you are ready to cross after 1 hour.
On File With Match Notice
CBSA has "matched" your manifest to a broker's RNS message, but the release isn't final yet.
- Recommendation: Send a Status Query to update the status to "Transaction Number".
On File With Transaction #
Ready to Cross. The broker has cleared the shipment (PARS Accepted).
- Detail: The Transaction Number (Entry #) appears in the history.
Border Activity Statuses
Arrival Reported at Border
The truck has arrived at the First Port of Entry (FPOA) and the officer has scanned the barcode.
- Note: Some shipments (like In-Bonds) may stay in this status even after the driver leaves the booth.
Rejected After Arrival
The officer rejected the manifest at the booth.
- Action: Confirm the issue with the driver, correct the data, and transmit an Amendment.
Released
Complete. The shipment has been released into Canada.
- Action: No further action required.
Cancelled
The manifest was successfully removed from CBSA’s system. It is no longer valid for crossing.
