Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the barley seed is accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate from the country of origin to meet CBSA and Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) import requirements
• Verify that the seed is free of soil and plant debris, as contamination can lead to detention at the border
• Confirm the access commitment quantity applies to your shipment; if exceeded, you may need to pay over-access commitment duties
