Import Tips
• Verify that the Tridacna clams are not listed under CITES, as many giant clam species are protected and require permits
• Ensure the clams are chilled, not frozen, and maintain proper temperature during transport
• Obtain a CFIA permit for live or chilled molluscs, as they are subject to sanitary inspection
