I presume whatever foodstuffs you take in your container you declare on your good list? So if you were taking 8 bottles of juice and a box or 2 of dairy milks... are they going to mind? :lol:

ah see, but do you have to declare that stuff?

Canadian law requires that you declare all food, plants and animals and related products that you bring into Canada. Failure to declare could lead to

confiscation of products
fines of up to $400 per undeclared item
prosecution

so no squash wouldnt count....not sure about chocolate.

Hi

A friend told me they found some in the cordial section of the supermarket. They can be found but a little pricey. I'm like you love my juices but not a reason why we shouldn't move to Canada LOL

I think I'll add some in my 'Goods to Follow' list and see what they say on the other end, I'm sure it'll be fine!

I have been taking out bottles in my luggage, just wondering if i could actually take a box of squash out, or 4 big bottles of it???


We stuck 16 bottles of Robinsons in our container, no issues at all. Though while we were waiting the 2 months for it to arrive we have been using the frozen concentrate fruit juice and adding extra water. All perfectly happy with that.

In two boxes due to weight, labelled as cordial on lists, also had bottle champagne and bottle of wine listed, no issues at all. Kitchen items, gravy granules etc listed as dry goods, no issues
