Fresh Whole Roaster Chicken from Germany

A fresh whole roaster chicken—a young bird weighing approximately 2.5 to 4 kg, suited for roasting and presented uncut. As a chicken of the species Gallus domesticus, it is classified here as fresh, whole, and not cut into pieces under heading 01.05. Its larger size distinguishes it from smaller broilers, but it remains within the same tariff classification.

Import Tips

• This is a within access commitment item under Canada's poultry tariff-rate quota; imports without a quota allocation or permit pay the far higher over access commitment rate

• Ensure the roaster is fresh, whole, and not cut to match the tariff item

• Have documentation showing the bird's age and species ready for CBSA verification
