Import Tips
• Because spelt is a wheat variety, determine if the product contains 25% or more by weight of wheat; if so, a tariff rate quota may apply
• If importing over the access commitment without a quota allocation, expect significantly higher duty rates
• Provide CBSA with documentation showing the swelling or roasting process and the absence of cocoa or animal-based ingredients
