Does anyone have experience in transitioning from export stamps to self-adhesive labels?
Hello,
Does anyone have experience in transitioning from export stamps to self-adhesive labels? I am trying to determine the best way to digitize the stamp impression. Are there any reputable companies that can do this?
Did you already get permission from CFIA??????????
Couple of steps to follow depending on the importing country
For the USA
(b) LabelsSome types of labels and labelling (for example, claims) need to be submitted to the FSIS for approval. Refer to the FSIS website and FSIS Compliance Guideline for Label Approval (PDF) for details.

tamps
Except for instances where export stickers are used, all shipping containers of meat product destined for export shall bear the export stamp or export label. The export stamp guarantees that the shipment has received a final inspection before export and identifies the shipment to the certification. The export stamp remains under the control of the inspector. At the discretion of an inspector, the stamps are to be applied either by themselves or by an establishment employee, under the supervision of the inspector.
The export stamp will bear the licence number of the shipping establishment. Alternatively, the export stamp could bear the producing establishment number if requested in writing by the operator of the producing establishment.
The rubber die of the stamp produces an oval, within which appears the word "Canada" and the number of the establishment. Next to the oval are the abbreviations "Cert. No. Cert." (certificate number), and a space for insertion of numbers (see Annex L: Official stamp for shipping containers). The operator may change the certificate number on the export stamp only when authorized by an inspector. The numbers to be inserted beneath the abbreviations must agree with those comprising the number of the certificate accompanying the shipment. Therefore, before boxes are stamped, one must verify that the selected number corresponds with the certificate number.
Ordinary ink, preferably black, of the type used to print on paper, cardboard or similar materials, should be used in all cases. Export stamp impressions must be complete, clear and legible, and be applied in a space reserved for that purpose.
In cases where a replacement certificate has to be issued and the number of the previous certificate has already been stamped on the boxes, the number of the previously issued certificate must appear on the replacement certificate. Moreover, the replacement certificate must bear the statement:
"This certificate replaces and supersedes certificate number (previous certificate number), issued on
(date)."
Export stickers (Annex M: Official export sticker) shall only be used on meat product destined for export to Switzerland and Russia under certain circumstances. The European Union (EU) requires that all shipping containers be sealed with health marks. Please see associated country sections in the Export requirements library for more country specific information.
