Import Tips

• Ensure the product is clearly labelled as a pastry margarine, not a butter substitute, to avoid classification under subheadings 1517.90.21 or 1517.90.22

• Provide a certificate of analysis showing the soybean oil content is at least 5% by weight

• Check if the product contains any dairy ingredients, which may trigger additional import requirements under Canadian food regulations
