• (a) endorsing the bill of lading, waybill or similar document presented by the carrier;

• (b) endorsing the customs document on which the goods were reported under the Reporting of Imported Goods Regulations; or

• (c) issuing a transfer document to the carrier.

(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), courier has the same meaning as in section 2 of the Persons Authorized to Account for Casual Goods Regulations.
