Avocado Soybean Salad Oil is a gourmet edible oil blend that combines avocado oil with more than 5% soybean oil to aid emulsification in dressings.

Import Tips
• Ensure the product is clearly labelled as a blend of avocado and soybean oils, with the soybean content exceeding 5% by weight, to support classification under 1517.90.99
• Declare the exact oil composition to the CBSA to avoid reclassification; keep certificates of analysis from the supplier
• Verify whether the blend qualifies for preferential tariff treatment under a free trade agreement, as duty rates may be reduced
