Import Tips
• Check the ingredient list to ensure the meat content exceeds 20% by weight, as required for Chapter 16 classification
• Confirm the cans are hermetically sealed and meet Canadian food safety standards
• If the product contains beans, verify they are subordinate to the meat component to avoid reclassification
