Jet will provide the transport of your goods. The international student must give the customs officer a list that clearly distinguishes between items you are bringing with you, and those that will arrive later. It is a good idea to have two copies of this list, preferably typewritten, and to include the description, model, serial number, where applicable, and the value of these effects.
The customs officer may require you to make a refundable security deposit for the durable goods imported temporarily. The officer will create a control document and attach to it a copy of the list of personal effects. This document will grant a reasonable amount of time for the transportation of goods to the place of residence in Québec via Jet Worldwide.
