Import Tips

• Verify seed purity and absence of contaminants like weed seeds to meet USDA APHIS import requirements for bird feed

• Provide phytosanitary certificates from origin countries like India or Ethiopia to avoid quarantine

• Label as 'not for human consumption' to prevent misclassification as edible seeds
