Import Tips
• Ensure the sausage is not of poultry (e.g
• chicken or turkey) to avoid classification under other tariff items
• Verify the product is not in cans or glass jars, as that would shift it to 1601.00.19
• Keep records of ingredients and preparation methods to support the classification if questioned by CBSA
