Import Tips

• Verify seed purity and absence of quarantine pests via phytosanitary certificates to comply with USDA APHIS regulations

• Label packages clearly with country of origin and 'not for human consumption' if intended for bird feed to avoid misclassification

• Avoid common pitfalls like contamination with weed seeds, which can lead to customs holds or rejection
