Table Notes

Table Note 2

For historical reasons dairy fees are only to be charged on products standardized by the Dairy Products Regulations. The dairy fee is applicable on IREP products for standardized products only, as indicated in the Dairy Fee & Import Declaration column.

Non commercial imports of < $20 and < 20 kg are exempt from dairy fees and do not require an import declaration.

These requirements apply to dairy products imported for human consumption only. Products labelled for animal feed only, are under the jurisdiction of the Animal Feed Program.
