I missed the part about AK license to hunt in Canada. Actually you need a U.S. hunting license to get the ATF 6 so you can hunt in the U.S. You need a State Department transit permit (DSP) to go through the country with guns.

Don't have my ITAR handy and I am a bit rusty on it, but Ripp is mostly right. Don't bother with the ATF website for temporary importation for exportation. That is a State department function. ATF truely only has jurisdiction on permanant importation and domestic firearms regulation. Some how they have got control of temporary personal importation for sporting or hunting purposes part and that is good, because their way is simpler. But that applies for temporary use in the US, not Canada.

By the way who ever told you to get an Alaska hunting license so you could get a ATF 6 when you are actually going to Canada gave you some very bad advice. You could end up spending quite a bit money in lost time, civil penalties and shipping to get your guns back after you pay the civil penalty. Misrepresentation of a material fact can enhance the penalty.
