Import Tips
• Include Plant Variety Protection (PVP) certificates if patented hybrids to establish legitimate sowing use
• Retail packets under 1kg often qualify for informal entry; bulk farm quantities need formal phytosanitary docs
• Ensure labels specify 'for sowing' to distinguish from decorative dried seeds
