This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the import exceeds the tariff-rate quota or no quota allocation is held
This is the over access commitment rate for the same product, applied when the within access commitment quota is exhausted or not covered by a permit.
If the spelt flakes are packaged in retail-sized packages of 11.34 kg or less
This covers wheat-containing preparations in smaller packages, still within access commitment, but with different packaging requirements.
If the product contains less than 25% wheat by weight or is made from a different cereal
This residual item applies to other prepared cereals in bulk that do not meet the wheat content threshold or specific grain requirements.

Import Tips & Compliance
• This is a within access commitment item under Canada's tariff-rate quota for wheat-containing preparations
• Imports without a quota allocation or permit will be subject to the much higher over access commitment rate under 1904.90.62
• Ensure your shipment is in bulk (over 11.34 kg per package) and provide a certificate of origin if claiming preferential treatment under a free trade agreement
