Import Tips

• Document the chicken-to-rice ratio to demonstrate that poultry exceeds 20% by weight, as the CBSA may verify this

• Ensure the product is labelled as a prepared meal, not a sauce or soup, to support classification

• Since this is a within access commitment item, obtain a quota allocation or permit to avoid the higher over access commitment duty
