List of Canada–United States border crossings
This is a list of border crossings along the International Boundary between Canada and the United States. They are ordered from west to east (crossings with Alaska from north to south). Each port of entry in the table below links to an article about that crossing.
The Land ports of entry list is limited to places where CBSA and/or CBP currently provide border inspection services. Crossings where border inspection services were once provided, but have since been barricaded are listed in the Closed Land Ports of Entry section. Unstaffed crossings are listed in the Unstaffed Road Crossings section. Separate sections are also provided for Rail Crossings and point-to-point Ferry Crossings.

| Boundary Bay | 67 Street | Point Roberts | Meadow Lane | A former border crossing used to be located on the eastern side of the peninsula. The crossing was permanently closed in 1975 when the Tyee Road border crossing was expanded.[5] The former Canada border station remains and has been refurbished. |  |

| Chopaka West | Chopaka Road | Nighthawk West | Chopaka Road | Canada periodically provided border services at the crossing on Chopaka Road until the US barricaded the road in 1964. It still owns the property at the border. The US never had border inspection services at this crossing.[6] A branch of the Great Northern Railway also once crossed the border at this location, but was abandoned in the late 1930s. | 49°0′0″N 119°43′33.4″W / 49.00000°N 119.725944°W | |
| Bridesville | Old Molson Road | Molson | Old Railroad Road | Molson died a slow death as its mining and farming businesses dried up in the 1920s.[7] Molson's designation as a port of entry was revoked in 1941,[8] and the Customs and Immigration station in the town closed. This building still stands as part of the Molson Museums, showing elements of what is now a ghost town. |  |
49°0′0.72″N 119°10′45.84″W / 49.0002000°N 119.1794000°W |
| Myncaster | Myncaster Road | Chesaw | Bolster Road | Canada port of entry was maintained to support both road and rail traffic, however, traffic on Bolster Road was light and the railroad ceased operations in 1937. The port of entry closed around 1955, but opened again for one day on June 9, 1990.[9] |  |
49°0′0.00″N 119°1′18.12″W / 49.0000000°N 119.0217000°W |
| Gateway | Dorr Road | Gateway | The border crossing at Gateway, Montana was located on the eastern banks of the Kootenay River approximately 5 miles west of the Roosville border crossing. Customs operations began around 1902 to inspect both vessel traffic on the lake and rail traffic on the adjacent Great Northern Railway branch. The crossing closed in 1933 when rail service ended, with Customs officers being relocated to the busier Roosville crossing. The railroad tracks were removed in 1936, and the US Post Office closed in 1950. What was left of the town was innundated by water in 1975 with the completion of the Libby Dam which created Lake Koocanusa. [10] | 49°0′3.96″N 114°28′42.24″W / 49.0011000°N 114.4784000°W | ||
| Flathead | Flathead Rd | Trailcreek | North Fork Rd | Border crossing adjacent to the Flathead River closed in 1996 due to flooding of the road just north of the border.[11] The road is gated at the border. Both the US and Canada border stations remain but are falling into disrepair. |  |
49°0′3.96″N 114°28′42.24″W / 49.0011000°N 114.4784000°W |
| Whiskey Gap | Emigrant Gap Road | Emigrant Gap | Emigrant Gap Road | Opened in 1934 and closed in 1939 when the Del Bonita Road opened. It was once a favorite place to bring alcohol into the US during prohibition.[12] | 48°59′54.60″N 113°5′46.68″W / 48.9985000°N 113.0963000°W | |

| Beaubier | Saskatchewan Highway 707 | Westby | North Westby Road | The port of Westby, Montana was established in 1919, and was revoked by Executive Order 9382 on September 23, 1943. Shortly before being designated a port of entry, the town of Westby moved a short distance from North Dakota into Montana to be closer to a new rail spur, and to be in a state that permitted the sale of alcohol.[14] | 48°59′59.9″N 104°04′41.4″W / 48.999972°N 104.078167°W | |
| Northgate | Hwy 9 | Northgate | ND 8 | US and Canadian Ports of Entry were abandoned when the highway was rebuilt about a half mile west of town in the early 1980s. Both buildings remain, and the border community is a virtual ghost town.[15] |  |
48°59′55.68″N 102°15′58.32″W / 48.9988000°N 102.2662000°W |
| West Lynne (Emerson) | 5th Street | Pembina | US 81 | This crossing on the Meridian Highway, whose other end was at the Mexico–United States border in Laredo, Texas, was moderately trafficked through the 1950s, but it was closed in the mid-1960s a few years after Interstate 29 and Manitoba Highway 29 were built immediately to the west. The Canadian and US border stations were demolished, but the concrete slabs on which they stood remain.[16] | 49°0′1.44″N 97°14′6.36″W / 49.0004000°N 97.2351000°W | |
| Emerson East | PTH 75 | Noyes | US 75 | Throughout the early 20th century, this was among the busiest U.S.-Canada border crossings. It was the point at which the Jefferson Highway intersected the international boundary and for a few years was adorned with an elaborate archway. Traffic waned with the 1957 opening of Interstate 29 two miles to the west. The crossing was closed by Canada in 2003 (where traffic was permitted southbound only) and then by the U.S. in 2006. All road traffic must now use the Pembina–Emerson Border Crossing. | .jpg) |

| Pigeon River | Old Border Rd (formerly Ontario Highway 61) | Pigeon River | County Route 89 (formerly MN 1 and US 61) | Formerly called Sextus City. The Outlaw Bridge as it was known, was built in 1917. It was closed in 1961 when a new bridge and border station were built in Grand Portage, Minnesota about 6 miles to the east. The old bridge, store, hotel and both border stations have all been destroyed. |  |

43°5′20.4″N 79°4′8.4″W / 43.089000°N 79.069000°W |
| Queenston | Niagara Regional Road 81 | Lewiston | Robert Moses State Parkway | The Queenston-Lewiston suspension bridge was replaced by the transverse-named Lewiston–Queenston Bridge in 1962, which was built about 0.7 miles (1.1 km) to the south. The bridge had a single line trolley track of the Niagara Gorge Railroad in the center of 3 lanes. The US inspection area has been transformed into the Earl W. Brydges Artpark State Park. |  |
|
| Cornwall | Highway 138 | Massena | NY 37 | The Canadian port of entry on Cornwall Island was closed June 1, 2009, due to a disagreement between the Mohawk Nation of Akwesasne and the Canada Border Services Agency regarding the arming of border services officers. A temporary port of entry was opened July 13, 2009, at the north end of the Seaway International Bridge north (high) span; it was used until the current "interim" port of entry was opened January 24, 2014. The old border station on Cornwall Island was demolished in July 2015. |  |
44°59′26.37″N 74°44′22.26″W / 44.9906583°N 74.7395167°W |
| Jamieson's Line | Chemin Jamieson | Jamieson Line | County Road 29 | The Canadian port of entry was permanently closed on April 1, 2011. For three years, this was a one-way crossing, with travelers able to enter the U.S. but not Canada at this location. Finally, the U.S. port of entry closed August 21, 2014. |  |
44°59′30.26″N 74°10′28.78″W / 44.9917389°N 74.1746611°W |
| Saint-Bernard-de-Lacolle, Quebec | Rang Roxham | Mooers | Roxham Road | The Canadian port of entry operated until the late 1950s and the building is now a private residence. The US never had a border station at this location. This crossing has been barricaded since the 1970s. |  |

| Saint-Bernard-de-Lacolle | Route 217 | Champlain | Meridian Road | Port of entry on Meridian Road was closed around 1950. The Canada border station was demolished. The USDA has since used the old US border station as an office.,[17] and it is currently for sale.[18] |  |
45°0′32.76″N 73°26′30.48″W / 45.0091000°N 73.4418000°W |
| Highwater | Chemin Lafond | North Troy | Space Research Corporation Road | In the 1960s and 1970s, Space Research Corporation founder Gerald Bull built his company on property his family owned on both sides of the border. As the company began building military weapons, the US established a border inspection station outside the company's south gate to inspect southbound traffic. This station also enabled US workers to legally return home after work without having to go through the North Troy border crossing, and it was not for use by the general public. Canada did not have a border station on the company's north gate. The SRC facility (and the Customs station) closed in 1980 when Bull was convicted of violating an arms embargo against South Africa.[19] | 45°0′30.60″N 72°26′58.20″W / 45.0085000°N 72.4495000°W | |
| Mansonville | Chemin du Pont-Couvert | North Troy | Douglas Road | Also known as "Province Hill", Canada Customs closed this office around 1972. The building is now purple and privately owned, but in the 1980s it was rented as a vacation home.[20] Prior to its construction in the 1960s, Canada Customs operated out of a line house across the street. This building was separated, moved about a half mile North and used as cottages.[21] The US did not have a border station at this crossing; persons entering were expected to travel to the North Troy border station for inspection. |  |
45°0′22.68″N 72°22′28.92″W / 45.0063000°N 72.3747000°W |
| Leadville | Chemin des Parulines | Newport | Leadville Road | Canadian Customs had a station from the mid-1930s to 1939, then reopened in 1948. It was replaced with a new border station in the mid-1950s, which permanently closed on March 31, 1969.[22] The Canada border station was converted into a private home that has been updated substantially. There was no US border station at this location; persons entering the US here were expected to travel to the US Customs office at 70 Main Street, Newport, VT to report for inspection. That office closed in 1972, and the road was barricaded. Today the former US Customs office is home to Northeast Kingdom Community Action. |  |
45°0′15.12″N 72°16′28.56″W / 45.0042000°N 72.2746000°W |
| Leadville | Chemin de Leadville | Newport | Lake Road | Although this was a busy road with many lakeside homes, neither the US or Canada had a border station here. Persons entering the US here were expected to travel to the US Customs office at 70 Main Street, Newport, VT to report for inspection. That office closed in 1972, and the road was barricaded at the border at that time. |  |
45°0′15.84″N 72°15′30.60″W / 45.0044000°N 72.2585000°W |
| Lineboro | Chemin de Nord Derby | North Derby | North Derby Road | Canada provided Customs service at this road and rail crossing 1932-1937 and 1949-1953. The U.S. never had Customs services here. Persons entering the US at this location were expected to travel to the US Customs office at 70 Main Street, Newport, VT to report for inspection. That office closed in 1972, and the road was barricaded at the border at that time. Today the Canada border station is a private home.[23] |  |

| Grand Falls | Caswell Road | Caswell | (unnamed road) | The US operated a border inspection station between 1936 and 1953. The General Services Administration purchased approximately a half acre of land in 1931, and constructed a red brick border station. The property was sold by the US government on October 13, 1954,[24] and although the sale included the brick building, it has since been demolished. The parcel, and the road leading to the border from Route 1A are now private property. It is not known if Canada had a border station on Caswell Road. | 47°02′29.7″N 67°47′24.2″W / 47.041583°N 67.790056°W | |
| Four Falls | Brown Road | East Road | Russell Road | Canada still provides Customs services seasonally, but US-bound traffic is prohibited, and has been since the US border station closed in the 1960s. However until 2008, US-bound traffic was permitted to use the road to the Aroostook Valley Country Club, which is in both countries. Several Canadian properties can only be accessed via the US part of the road, which pre-dates the establishment of the border; several residents have experienced harassment from U.S. Border Patrol officers since 9/11.[25][26] |  |

| Tinker | Tinker Road | Fort Fairfield | Aroostook Falls Road | The US operated a border station at this crossing from 1941 to 1953. The border station was located about 500 feet west of the Canada–US border. The General Services Administration purchased the property for the border station on May 20, 1940, and sold it on October 21, 1955.[27] In 1970, The Canadian Magazine declared this crossing "The best place to sneak across the border".[28] The road was barricaded around 1976. The Aroostook River flood of 1994 killed 2 Canadian Customs officers whose vehicle was swept into a ditch by rising flood waters at this crossing.[29] | 46°47′36.24″N 67°47′22.56″W / 46.7934000°N 67.7896000°W | |

| Beaconsfield | Nicholson Road | Easton | Curtis Road | Canada stopped providing Customs services in the late 1950s and erected a sign directing travelers to the nearest open crossing. The US moved its border services to the Rivière de Chute crossing from a more central location on Ladner Road. The crossing was barricaded in the 1980s. |  |
46°39′9.36″N 67°47′18.96″W / 46.6526000°N 67.7886000°W |
| Listerville | Mars Hill Road | Mars Hill | Knoxford Line Road | Border inspection services were established in 1939, and closed in 1976.

Unstaffed road crossings
Unstaffed road crossing at Angle Inlet, Minnesota
This is a list of roads that cross the U.S.-Canada border that do not have border inspection services, but where you are legally allowed to cross the border in one or both directions. In prior years, there were dozens of such roads where one could legally cross the border and then proceed to an open Customs office to report for inspection, but most have since been barricaded. Requirements for reporting to CBSA or CBP for inspection are noted.
