Quick answers

Is the Jackman–Armstrong border crossing open 24 hours?

Yes. CBP’s live wait-time feed lists the Jackman, Maine port of entry as open 24 hours a day, and CBSA’s Armstrong office in Saint-Théophile, Quebec is staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for both travellers and commercial traffic. CBP’s board lists a maximum of three passenger lanes and two commercial lanes and rarely staffs them all, so a published schedule does not rule out a temporary closure or weather delay. Check the official boards before a time-sensitive trip.

Why does Jackman–Armstrong show no wait time heading into Canada?

CBSA does not publish a Canada-bound wait for its Armstrong office. The crossing is staffed 24 hours a day for travellers and commercial traffic; an unavailable wait does not mean it is closed. CBP reports U.S.-bound passenger and commercial waits at Jackman.

Can you walk across Jackman–Armstrong?

Walking access has not been confirmed from the official sources reviewed. The absence of a pedestrian wait does not establish whether walking is allowed. Call CBSA’s Border Information Service at 1-800-461-9999 before planning to cross on foot.

Hours, lanes and capacity

Both sides operate around the clock. CBP lists the Jackman, Maine port of entry as open 24 hours a day with its port status marked Open. CBSA staffs the Armstrong office in Saint-Théophile, Quebec 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for both travellers and commercial traffic.

The toll status has not been confirmed by the route owner. Neither agency publishes a NEXUS, SENTRI or FAST lane here. CBP lists a maximum of three passenger lanes and two commercial lanes; check the current report for how many are open.
