So... here we are! I booked my flight and I'm leaving Canada in a few short weeks.

I'll be flying through YVR and I have hired a moving company to pick up my things and hold it until I am across the border. Because I won't have most of my things for a week or two, I have decided to check 2 bags with my essentials. Is there any custom forms that are required? Or can I just check them in and tell them I'm moving? Show them a copy of my visa and have an itemized list in my purse?

Also, any tidbits of info about POE at YVR would be great to hear!

TIA!

The moving company gave you customs forms for what they're moving, I hope. You won't need forms or lists for what you're carrying. Go early for your flight. It took me 2 hours to get through.

You will still have the regular custom's form to fill out.

Thanks! The moving company did give me forms for the things they are bringing with me. But just wondering about the things I'm personally carrying over, not with the moving company. :)

Eek!! Thanks so much.
