Whole herrings that have been hot-smoked for preservation and flavour, packaged loosely for retail sale. The smoking process preserves the fish without mincing, so the product is classified as whole fish, not in pieces, under the 'other' subheading for herrings.

Import Tips
• Ensure the herrings are whole and not minced; if minced, they fall under a different tariff item
• Declare the smoking process accurately, as smoked fish may be subject to different inspection requirements by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA)
