Import Tips
• Verify erucic acid content via lab testing (<2% by weight) and glucosinolate levels (<30 micromoles/g) with certificates to meet subheading 1205.10 definition
• Provide phytosanitary certificates confirming seed viability for sowing and freedom from pests, as required for agricultural imports
• Avoid misclassification as high erucic acid seeds (1205.90); check seed variety documentation to prevent duty reassessment
