Organic Liquor Products

The Safe Food for Canadians Regulations has specific requirements if a liquor product:

  • has an organic claim on the label and is sold between provinces or territories or imported; or
  • displays the Canada Organic Logo on the label and is sold within or outside of Canada.

In these cases, organic labelling requirements must be followed, and valid organic certificates must be acquired and retained.

What does this mean for organic liquor products sold in Alberta?

Submit organic certificates to AGLC

Please submit your valid organic certificates for imported organic product to organic-certificates@aglc.ca.

This will contribute to minimal disruption during the customs clearance process. Valid organic certificates for imported organic products will also be requested during product registration.
