Import Tips
• Provide the CBSA with a certificate of analysis showing the oleic acid content to confirm it is a high oleic variety, though this does not affect classification
• Ensure the oil is refined but not chemically modified; any chemical treatment would change the tariff classification
• Verify whether the product is for food or industrial use, as this may affect other regulatory requirements
