Import Tips

Obtain phytosanitary certificates from exporting country confirming seeds are free of pests like cabbage root fly and compliant with USDA APHIS regulations

Declare exact botanical variety (e.g

Brassica oleracea capitata) and sowing purpose on entry documents to prevent reclassification as Chapter 7 fresh vegetables

Avoid common pitfalls like importing treated seeds which may shift to pesticide headings (3808); test for glucosinolate levels if contested
