Import Tips
• This is a within access commitment item under Canada's cheese tariff-rate quota
• You must obtain a quota allocation or permit from Global Affairs Canada before importing; otherwise, the over access commitment rate (tariff item 0406.30.20) applies, which is significantly higher
• Ensure the cheese is properly labelled as processed cheese and meets Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) standards for dairy products
