Import Tips
• Provide detailed variety labeling and origin certificates to distinguish from 'common' red clover under the same HTS
• Conduct dodder-free inspections, as parasitic weeds are a frequent issue in clover seed imports
• Use Small Lots of Seed provisions for samples under 13 kg to simplify customs clearance
