Import Tips
• Ensure seed purity certificates (minimum 85% germination) and label GMO status to comply with US seed import laws under 7 CFR Part 201
• Package in moisture-proof containers to maintain viability during transit; declare net weight accurately to avoid undervaluation penalties
• Watch for misdeclaration as spice seeds (Chapter 9); provide sowing end-use documentation
