Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) includes a pamphlet titled Important Passport Tips (C&I-1885) with each passport issued. CIC requires the Contractor to print and deliver quantities of C&I-1885 on an "if and when" requested basis. This accounts for an annual production and distribution of approximately 5,000,000 copies of C&I-1885. Because the quantities required are driven by the demand for passports CIC cannot guarantee the exact quantity that may be required for any year.
CIC expects to place production orders for quantities between 1,000,000 and 1,750,000 units every four (4) months. However, the contract will also allow for smaller orders on an if and when required basis. The minimum quantity for these additional orders will be 150,000 units.
