Import Tips
• Sweet pea seeds are not classified as vegetables, so ensure they are declared as flower seeds to avoid misclassification
• Verify that the seeds are free from weevil infestation, which CBSA inspects for
• If the seeds are for ornamental use, include this in the product description to support the classification
