Import Tips
• Ensure the flax seeds are whole and not ground, as flours and meals fall under heading 12.08
• If the seeds are for human consumption, verify compliance with Canadian Food Inspection Agency labelling requirements
• Declare whether the seeds are for oil extraction, feed, or food use to avoid misclassification
