Import Tips
• Ensure the product is declared as a fruit mixture under 2008.97.90, not as a jam or jelly (heading 17.04 or 18.06), to avoid misclassification
• Verify the sugar content and packaging to confirm it qualifies as 'otherwise prepared or preserved' rather than a confectionery item
• Keep records of the fruit composition for CBSA verification
