Import Tips
• Fresh coca leaves are subject to strict controls; secure a Health Canada import permit under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act prior to shipment
• Ensure the leaves are free of pests and soil, as they may be subject to Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) inspection
• Declare the shipment accurately to the CBSA and be prepared to provide evidence of the intended legitimate use
