Appendix A to Tariff Schedule of Canada (Tariff Rate Quotas)
SECTION A – GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. This Appendix sets out the tariff rate quotas (TRQs) that Canada shall apply to certain originating goods under this Agreement. In particular, originating goods of Parties to this Agreement included under this Appendix shall be subject to the rates of duty set out in this Appendix in lieu of the rates of duty specified in Chapters 1 through 97 of the Schedule to Canada’s Customs Tariff. Notwithstanding any other provision of Canada’s Customs Tariff, originating goods of Parties to this Agreement in the quantities described in this Appendix shall be permitted entry into the territory of Canada as provided in this Appendix. Furthermore, any quantity of originating goods imported from a Party to this Agreement under a TRQ provided for in this Appendix shall not be counted toward the in-quota quantity of any TRQ provided for such goods under Canada’s WTO tariff schedule or any other trade agreement.
2. Canada shall administer all TRQs provided for in this Agreement and set out in section B of this Appendix according to the following provisions:
(a) Canada shall administer its TRQs through an import licensing system.
(b) Notwithstanding the definition of “year” provided in sub-paragraph 6(c) of the General Notes to Annex 2-D (Tariff Elimination), “quota year” in this appendix means the 12-month period over which a TRQ applies and is allocated. “Quota year one” has the meaning assigned to “year one” in sub-paragraph 6(a)(iv)1) of the General Notes to Annex 2-D (Tariff Elimination).
(c) Canada shall allocate its TRQs each quota year to eligible applicants. An eligible applicant means a resident of Canada, active in the applicable Canadian sector (i.e., the dairy, poultry, or egg sector, as appropriate), and that is compliant with the Export and Import Permits Act and its regulations. In assessing eligibility, Canada shall not discriminate against applicants who have not previously imported the product subject to a TRQ but who meet the residency, activity, and compliance criteria.
(d) Canada reserves the right to allocate any TRQ or portion of a TRQ through auctioning for no more than the first 7 quota years after entry into force of the Agreement for Canada.
(e) Canada reserves the right to allocate a portion of each TRQ, not to exceed 10% of the annual aggregate quantity, in priority for the importation of goods that are in scarce supply in the Canadian market. Scarce supply means a good which is deemed not available in Canada in sufficient supply to satisfy Canadian demand.
3. Canada’s TRQs shall apply to originating goods of the TPP region.
4. For purposes of this Appendix, the term “metric tonnes” shall be abbreviated as “MT”.

Appendix A to Tariff Schedule of Canada (Tariff Rate Quotas)
SECTION A – GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. This Appendix sets out the tariff rate quotas (TRQs) that Canada shall apply to certain originating goods under this Agreement. In particular, originating goods of Parties to this Agreement included under this Appendix shall be subject to the rates of duty set out in this Appendix in lieu of the rates of duty specified in Chapters 1 through 97 of the Schedule to Canada’s Customs Tariff. Notwithstanding any other provision of Canada’s Customs Tariff, originating goods of Parties to this Agreement in the quantities described in this Appendix shall be permitted entry into the territory of Canada as provided in this Appendix. Furthermore, any quantity of originating goods imported from a Party to this Agreement under a TRQ provided for in this Appendix shall not be counted toward the in-quota quantity of any TRQ provided for such goods under Canada’s WTO tariff schedule or any other trade agreement.
2. Canada shall administer all TRQs provided for in this Agreement and set out in section B of this Appendix according to the following provisions:
(a) Canada shall administer its TRQs through an import licensing system.
(b) Notwithstanding the definition of “year” provided in sub-paragraph 6(c) of the General Notes to Annex 2-D (Tariff Elimination), “quota year” in this appendix means the 12-month period over which a TRQ applies and is allocated. “Quota year one” has the meaning assigned to “year one” in sub-paragraph 6(a)(iv)1) of the General Notes to Annex 2-D (Tariff Elimination).
(c) Canada shall allocate its TRQs each quota year to eligible applicants. An eligible applicant means a resident of Canada, active in the applicable Canadian sector (i.e., the dairy, poultry, or egg sector, as appropriate), and that is compliant with the Export and Import Permits Act and its regulations. In assessing eligibility, Canada shall not discriminate against applicants who have not previously imported the product subject to a TRQ but who meet the residency, activity, and compliance criteria.
(d) Canada reserves the right to allocate any TRQ or portion of a TRQ through auctioning for no more than the first 7 quota years after entry into force of the Agreement for Canada.
(e) Canada reserves the right to allocate a portion of each TRQ, not to exceed 10% of the annual aggregate quantity, in priority for the importation of goods that are in scarce supply in the Canadian market. Scarce supply means a good which is deemed not available in Canada in sufficient supply to satisfy Canadian demand.
3. Canada’s TRQs shall apply to originating goods of the TPP region.
4. For purposes of this Appendix, the term “metric tonnes” shall be abbreviated as “MT”.
