Canada Customs and Revenue Agency (CCRA; French: Agence des douanes et du revenu du Canada, ADRC) was a department of the government of Canada and existed from November 1, 1999 until December 12, 2003. It was created from the merging of Revenue Canada with Canada Customs.[1][2]

The CCRA was subsequently split into the Canada Border Services Agency and Canada Revenue Agency.[1][2]

During the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal, QC, the department was called the Department of National Revenue Customs and Excise.
