Brined Homarus Lobster for Processing from Japan

Homarus lobsters packed in brine barrels, intended for further industrial processing rather than direct retail sale. The brine preservation qualifies them under the 'salted or in brine' provision of the tariff item, and they are not smoked, distinguishing them from the sibling item.

Import Tips

• Ensure the brine solution is fully declared and the product is labelled as for processing to avoid reclassification

• Provide a detailed processing plan to the CBSA if requested

• Verify that the shipment does not contain any smoked product, which would fall under a different item
