Import Tips

Obtain a phytosanitary certificate from the exporting country confirming seed viability and freedom from pests/quarantine organisms

Verify germination rates and purity standards; U.S. customs may require labeling indicating 'for sowing only' to avoid reclassification

Avoid common pitfalls like inadequate declaration of seed treatment (e.g

fungicide); declare all treatments to prevent delays or penalties
