Permanent Closure for Four Falls, NB Port of Entry

Canada Border Services Agency

May 11, 2026 Perth-Andover, NB Canada Border Services Agency

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) announces that the seasonal Four Falls, New Brunswick (NB) port of entry, which has been out of service since 2020, will now be permanently closed.

  • Andover: 6 Route 190, Carlingford, NB (open 24 hours per day, 7 days per week)
  • Gillespie Portage: 600 Route 375, California Settlement, NB (open daily from 7 am to 7 pm)

For details about these locations, or to find an alternate option, consult the Directory of CBSA Offices and Services.

The Four Falls port of entry closed temporarily on May 17, 2020, initially in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The suspension of service was extended and the port of entry has not been operational since May 2020.

The decision to permanently close the port of entry was based on an analysis of operational pressures and services required in Atlantic Canada. Factors considered included the seasonal operating model of the port of entry (open from mid-April to mid-October), low traffic volumes (an average of eight thousand travellers per season), and the proximity of two additional ports of entry. It also aligns CBSA operations with the United States, as there is no adjacent port of entry on the other side of the border.
