Import Tips
• Laboratory analysis certificates are often required at entry to confirm low erucic acid compliance
• Declare exact intended use as 'oil stock' on commercial invoice; vague descriptions lead to higher duty rates
• Ensure seeds are not treated for sowing, as this triggers chapter note exclusions to heading 1209
