Import Tips
• Ensure the little millet is imported uncleaned and unprocessed to qualify for heading 10.08; cleaning or milling moves it to Chapter 11
• Declare the species (Panicum sumatrense) to distinguish it from proso millet (Panicum miliaceum) of heading 10.07
• Confirm with the CFIA whether a phytosanitary certificate is required for the specific origin
