Import Tips
• For poppy seeds destined for oil extraction, classify under 1207.91.00 as oil seeds
• If the seeds are processed into oil, the oil itself will fall under a different heading (e.g
• 1515), so plan for separate classification
• Ensure the seeds are not contaminated with opium alkaloids that could trigger regulatory concerns under Canadian drug laws
