• CFIA regulates the processing of fish in all federally registered fish processing plants. All plants that ship product from one province to another, or export to other countries, must be registered with the CFIA. • Fish plants are required to have a QMP in place and CFIA inspectors regularly conduct verifications of QMPs to see if they meet the requirements of the Fish Inspection Regulations. • The CFIA also monitors imports of fish products and conducts regular inspections. Imports must meet the same requirements as domestic products.
