Global Affairs Canada issued a notice to industry advising the application period for the 2022-2023 dairy year tariff rate quota(TRQs) and the previously unallocated quota under the 2022 CUSMA calendar year dairy TRQs (August to December 2022)is now open for submission, as of May 16th, 2022 and with a deadline of June 15th, 2022.
Following the CUSMA dairy TRQs Panel report published in January 2022 and the completion of public consultations on Canada’s Panel report implementation plan, Canada has amended its allocation policies for all CUSMA dairy TRQs, including their respective application forms.
Under the new CUSMA dairy TRQs policies, Canada has made changes:
• Removed all allocation holder pools under all CUSMA dairy TRQs; and
• Included distributors as eligible under the CUSMA Industrial Cheeses TRQ.
There are no changes to existing ministerial allocation policies for the 2022-2023 dairy year TRQs under the WTO and CPTPP, however, there have been some changes to the CPTPP dairy year TRQ application forms.
Interested entities, who are not current allocation holders under the 2022 CUSMA calendar year dairy TRQs can apply for a portion of the previously unallocated quota under these TRQs by applying. Current allocations holders under the 2022 CUSMA calendar year dairy TRQs are not required to submit a new application.
Notices and all application forms can be found on the Supply-Managed TRQs website.
The notices should be read in conjunction with the General Information on the Administration of TRQs for Supply-Managed Products and the Key Dates and Access Quantities 2022-2023: TRQs for Supply-Managed Products.
