Fresh Oca Tubers from Germany
Fresh oca tubers are small, tangy root vegetables from the Andes, available in red, pink, or yellow varieties and imported fresh or chilled. They are classified under tariff item 0709.99.90 as 'other vegetables' because they are not specifically enumerated elsewhere in Chapter 07. This item covers miscellaneous fresh vegetables not named in earlier headings.

Import Tips

• Include package weight when calculating duties, as required by supplementary note 1
• Check with the CFIA for any plant health requirements, as oca is a less common import
