Import Tips
• Verify the product does not contain more than 20% meat or fish, as that would reclassify to Chapter 16
• Confirm the wheat content and yeast leavening: if 25% or more wheat and yeast-leavened, a sibling TRQ item may apply
• Provide the double-baking process details to CBSA to confirm the rusk classification
