Import Tips
• Ensure the powder is not mixed with other substances or presented as a medicament, as that could shift classification to Chapter 30
• Keep records of the cultivation origin (e.g
• certificates) to support the 'cultivated' claim if asked by CBSA
• Verify whether a plant health import permit is required under the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) rules
