Import Tips
• Obtain phytosanitary certificates confirming seed health, purity over 98%, and germination rates to comply with USDA APHIS import requirements
• Provide documentation of low erucic acid content (<2%) and glucosinolate levels (<30 micromoles/g) to verify classification under 1205.10
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as oilseeds (1205.90); ensure packaging clearly states 'for sowing' to prevent reclassification
