YEs you need forms.
In the U.S.go to the nearest U.S. Customs and Border Protection office and have “CPB form 4452 (rev5/22) CERTIFICATE OF REGISTRATION FOR PERSONAL EFFECTS TAKEN ABROAD.”
FILL OUT THE FIRST THREE SECTIONS DATE AND SIGN. CBP OFFICIAL WILL CHECK THE SERIAL NUMBER OF THE OF GUNS, SIGN,STAMP AND DATE.
For the Canadian form NUMBER 5589 GOOGLE non resident firearms declaration or just go to the Canadian government website. You will find it. Complete it.
Gun storage WHEN TRANSPORTING OVER THE BORDER.
Utilize a locked gun case, REMOVE THE BOLT FROM THE GUN BEFORE YOU STORE IT.. WHY? CANADIAN CUSTOMS OFFICER TOLD ME THEY FIND LOADED GUNS ALL THE TIME. DUMBASS AMERICANS I’M SORRY TO SAY.
THESE GUYS AND GALS APPRECIATE IT AS SOON AS THEY OPEN YOUR CASE. MAKES YOUR LIFE EASY. THEY GET IT,. DONE IT 3 TIMES.
