The notified measure establishes quality requirements (germination and physical purity), variety name and regulated non-quarantine weeds for the importation of seeds.

Seeds entering the country must comply with the requirements laid down in the Resolution covering the measure, without prejudice to the existing provisions on plant health. It should be noted that the draft does not introduce new requirements, but rather, expands on some existing requirements that are currently subject to interpretation, with a view to strengthening and clarifying the standard.
