Certificate of Free Sale: Cannabis Products (International Trade Certificate)

A Certificate of Free Sale (CFS) for cannabis products—also known as an International Trade Certificate (ITC)—is a document that verifies the regulatory status of a cannabis product in Canada and supports its export to international markets.

What Is a Cannabis Certificate of Free Sale?
This certificate confirms that a cannabis product is:
• Manufactured in Canada
• Compliant with national regulations
• Eligible for export to other countries

While commonly referred to as an International Trade Certificate, this document provides the same function as a Certificate of Free Sale, assuring foreign authorities that the product is legally produced and regulated in Canada.

Who Can Use This Certificate?
Certificates of Free Sale for cannabis products are typically used by licensed producers and exporters seeking to register or ship products to international markets. The certificate helps demonstrate compliance with Canadian production standards and may be required by importing countries' regulatory bodies.

Exporting cannabis products internationally?
If your cannabis product is made in Canada and you require export documentation, a Certificate of Free Sale (ITC) may be necessary to meet international trade requirements. Please create an account or log in to purchase a Certificate of Free Sale for Cannabis Products.
