Canadian Customs: What can I bring into Canada?

Every day, people from all over the world enter Canada by land, sea and air. For immigrants from China, there are generally two ways to enter Canada, one is by plane, and the other is by land from the United States. No matter which way you enter the country, everyone should know about the regulations of Canadian customs, what can and can't be carried, otherwise it will bring you a lot of trouble. A friend of Bian Xiao's brought a bag of beef jerky into the customs blacklist, and every time he entered the country, he would be "specially concerned"-unpacking inspection. Canadian Customs will use tools such as "X-ray machine", "ion scanner" and "ghost dog" to find out whether the immigrants are carrying contraband. Generally speaking, the most commonly carried contraband is usually meat, and many people often mistakenly think that the "meat food" prohibited in Canada only refers to raw meat. But in fact, processed cooked meat is also banned. For example, moon cakes, cakes, egg rolls and other foods that can be carried originally will also be detained by the customs if they contain meat flavors such as "Wu Renyue with golden legs", "Sesame Pine Nut Cake" and "Pine Nut Egg Roll". Immigrants should also note that not all gifts sold in duty-free shops at airports in other countries can enter Canada. For example, snacks such as "black pepper jerky" and "charcoal roast duck kidney" sold in Hong Kong airport duty-free shops are all contraband in Canada. At the same time, some foods dried with animal offal, even if regarded as medicinal materials in other regions, are still animal offal and cannot be brought into Canada. Bird's Nest, which was originally allowed to enter Canada, needs an additional application for customs clearance because of bird flu after 2006. As for fruits, Canada has not banned tropical fruits from Asia in principle, as long as you remember to cut off branches and leaves that may contain eggs. However, if there are pests and diseases on fruits in a certain area, Canada will still ban these fruits from entering the country. ⒈Canadian law requires passengers to declare all food, animals, plants and related products when they return to Canada. For the sake of safety, you should declare any items that you feel unsafe. Canadian law requires all immigrants to declare if they bring any food, animals and plants and other related items that cannot be confirmed whether they are allowed to enter the customs. Although the following table says that American meat can be brought into Canada, you must declare it first and prepare the receipt and other certificates when you enter the Canadian customs. If you are afraid of trouble, no matter where you enter Canada, don't bring any meat food, even if one of the ingredients in the food contains meat.
