Importing country requirements

It is the exporter's responsibility to ensure that the animal meets the importing country requirements.

Exporters are advised to check for updated Import Notices and advice on entry requirements for swine and their germplasm. Australia is not listed as an allowable country for the import of swine and their germplasm into Canada at this time.

Information about the process required to import animals into Canada can be found on the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) website.
