Import Tips
• Comply with USDA APHIS import permit requirements for all legume seeds to prevent quarantine issues
• Label packages clearly as 'for sowing only' to distinguish from food products and ensure correct HTS use
• Test for germination rates above 80% as common pitfall; low-viability seeds may face rejection
