NEXUS members can use the automated kiosks located in the U.S. Preclearance area and the Canadian inspection services area at participating airports.
Members can proceed directly to the NEXUS self-serve kiosk and do not need to go through the standard queue to speak to a border services officer or CBP officer.
Members stand in front of the self-serve kiosk and look into the adjustable camera and follow the audio instructions so that their irises can be photographed using iris recognition biometric technology.
Once the CBSA or CBP has confirmed that the photo of the irises matches the one on file, the member will use the touch screen to answer standard customs and immigration questions.
NEXUS members residing in Canada can use a Traveller Declaration Card (TDC) to declare goods and pay for any duties or taxes when entering Canada. Members simply deposit a TDC in a secure TDC box conveniently located near a self-serve kiosk. Any duties or taxes owing will be collected through the credit card information provided on the TDC.
