We’ll move you with NEXUS

NEXUS members can now enjoy faster entrance into the US and Canada, and a dedicated line at security screening.  The Trusted Traveller CATSA Security Line leverages the existing NEXUS program, which expedites the border clearance process for pre-approved, low-risk travellers into Canada and the United States.  Security is maintained as NEXUS members and their carry-on baggage undergo the same level of screening as other travellers.

You may qualify to participate in NEXUS if you are a citizen or permanent resident of Canada or the United States and have lived in Canada and/or the United States continuously for the last three years.  Both the Canadian Border Services Agency and the US Customs and Border Protection must approve your application for you to become a member of NEXUS.  Memberships are $50 for a 5-year term.

Become a member of NEXUS today!
