Commercial invoice data, ready for your CAD.
DeepPixel reads commercial invoices from any vendor and returns parties, line items, quantities, values, currency and country of origin, so your customs team starts from clean data instead of a PDF. 99% accuracy, with human-in-the-loop review when required.
CARM changed the filing, not the invoices
Every declaration still begins with someone reading a vendor's invoice.
The CAD replaced the B3
Since CARM Release 2 went live on October 21, 2024, goods are accounted for with a Commercial Accounting Declaration. The data still starts on the commercial invoice.
Line-level data drives the duties
CARM calculates duties and taxes from what is declared. A mistyped quantity, value or country of origin becomes a correction later.
Invoices come in every format
Each vendor has its own layout, currency and language. Many run several pages of line items. Your raters re-key all of it.

Commercial invoice extraction FAQ
What is commercial invoice data extraction?
It is reading a commercial invoice and turning its contents (parties, line items, quantities, values, currency, origin and terms) into structured data, so customs brokers and importers do not have to key it by hand before preparing a declaration.
Does DeepPixel file the CAD?
No. DeepPixel prepares the invoice data. Your licensed team classifies, reviews and submits the declaration through the systems you already use. We take the typing out of the process, not the professional judgement.
Does DeepPixel assign HS codes?
DeepPixel extracts HS codes when the vendor prints them on the invoice. Tariff classification stays with your team.
Can it read invoices in other languages?
Yes. DeepPixel reads documents in more than 50 languages, which matters when vendors invoice in their own language and currency.
Is a commercial invoice acceptable instead of a Canada Customs Invoice?
Under CBSA Memorandum D1-4-1, a commercial invoice is acceptable when it contains all the information required on the Canada Customs Invoice (CI1), or when it is used together with a CI1 that supplies the missing details.
How accurate is it?
DeepPixel delivers 99% accuracy, with human-in-the-loop review when required. During the pilot we measure accuracy on your own invoices against your own data.
Is our clients' data secure?
DeepPixel is SOC 2 Type II. We sign an NDA before any documents move.
