Import Tips
• Do not rely on marketing terms like 'albacore-style'—the CBSA classifies based on the actual species, so ensure the ingredient list confirms Sarda sarda
• If importing from Spain, check if the Canada-EU Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) provides preferential duty rates, and have the necessary proof of origin ready
• Glass jar packaging is acceptable, but ensure it meets Canadian food safety and labelling standards
