How to send food to Canada from India

Sending homemade food to loved ones in Canada is one of the most common requests we get at JSK International Courier. Here's everything you need to know.

What food can you send? Dry fruits, commercially packed sweets, sealed pickles, spices, tea and coffee are generally allowed. Homemade cooked food is possible but must be vacuum-sealed.

Packing matters. We recommend vacuum packing for all food items to extend shelf life and prevent leaks. Our packing service includes sturdy boxes and leak-proof sealing.

Customs in Canada. Food items must be declared on the customs form. Commercially packed items pass more easily; homemade items may be opened for inspection. Be honest about contents.

Transit time. Express delivery to Canada takes 5–8 working days. Economy is slower but cheaper.

The bottom line: with the right packing and honest declaration, sending food to Canada is straightforward. WhatsApp us to get started.
