Import Tips
• Confirm the chicken content exceeds 20% of the total weight, as the CBSA may verify this during clearance
• Ensure the product is labelled as a complete meal, not a sandwich or snack, to support classification
• Since this is a within access commitment item, secure a quota allocation or permit to avoid the higher over access commitment duty
