Import Tips
• Provide the CBSA with the vessel's multi-temperature zone capabilities to confirm it is a refrigerated vessel
• Ensure the vessel's primary use is cargo transport, not passenger services, to avoid reclassification
• Consider any sanitary requirements for meat transport, though the vessel itself is classified under this item
