As you prepare to move to Canada, it's essential to understand the restrictions and prohibited items when entering the country. In addition to general restrictions like firearms, weapons, explosives, fireworks, and ammunition, Canada has strict regulations regarding incoming goods, especially food items. Here are some quick guidelines to help ensure a smooth relocation:
1. Dried Seafood: Fish maw is one of the most inquired items. Although the CBSA does not officially list it as banned, Wilcan, with over 30 years of shipping experience, advises against attempting to ship fish maw, shark fins, dried tangerine peel, and bird's nest to avoid delays in customs clearance, potential confiscation, fines, taxes, or a negative record at customs.
2. Fruits, Vegetables, and Seeds: The CBSA specifies that these are prohibited.
3. Grains: The CBSA prohibits bringing rice, wheat, corn, and similar items.
4. Meat: All meats and meat products, including cured meats, meat floss, and jerky, are prohibited.
5. Dairy Products: Cheese, milk, and all dairy products are banned.
6. Alcohol: Adults may bring in up to 1.5 liters of wine, up to 1.14 liters of alcoholic beverages, and up to 8.5 liters of beer or ale. Restrictions may vary slightly by province.
7. Medications: Prescription medications must be accompanied by a doctor's note.
