Notice to Industry - CFIA Pre-market Application Submissions Office (PASO)

Ottawa, July 4, 2014: The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has established a Pre-market Application Submissions Office (PASO). Stakeholders are now required to contact the PASO for processing applications for livestock feeds, Plant Breeder's Rights, fertilizers, variety registration, plants with novel traits, and veterinary biologics, or to follow up on the status of a previously submitted application.

Centralizing the submission of applications will result in increased consistency and efficiency in the delivery and administration of pre-market application requests.
