Import Tips
• Ensure the fish are alive and fit for stocking or aquaculture; dead fish fall under other chapters
• Verify species documentation, as Salvelinus fontinalis may be challenged by CBSA if not clearly presented as trout
• Check provincial import permits for live fish, as CBSA may require them at the border
