Import Tips
• Clearly label the product as 'haddock suppliants' or 'tail sections' to distinguish from fillets, which may have different statistical codes
• Maintain the fresh or chilled condition throughout transport, documenting temperature logs for CBSA inspection
• Ensure the suppliants are from a species in the Gadidae family, such as Melanogrammus aeglefinus, and provide scientific names on the commercial invoice
