Import Tips
• This is a within access commitment item under Canada's tariff-rate quota for poultry; imports without a quota allocation or permit pay a much higher over access commitment rate
• Ensure the capon is certified fit for human consumption and present a valid import permit from Global Affairs Canada at the border
• Keep the product chilled (not frozen) to match the tariff classification
