CFIA Message: Submission of Official Meat Import Certificates
Please be advised of an important update to the submission of Official Meat Import Certificates (OMIC).
The National Import Service Centre (NISC) no longer collects a paper copy of the OMIC. The OMIC for a full inspection is still collected by the responsible inspector at the facility yet the OMIC for skip lots can be collected by any CFIA staff member (at the facility or a regional office).
To find out if your meat shipment requires an inspection from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), please use the Automated Shipment Inspection Status Search Tool (ASISST)
