General Requirements

Consignments are to be free from pests, soil, weed seeds and extraneous material.

​Original and certified translation of the import permit must be presented to the Authorised Officer at the time of inspection.

Consignment must be free from Blackleg (Leptosphaeria maculans), Crown and Root Rot (Verticillium dahliae), Fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. conglutinans), Light leaf spot (Pyrenopeziza brassicae), Darnel ryegrass (Lolium temulentum), Doublegee (Emex Australis), Common Groundsel (Senecio vulgaris), Soybean Looper (Chrysodeixis includens) and Large cabbage-heart caterpillar (Crocidolomia pavonana).
  • Crown and Root Rot (Verticillium dahliae), Fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. conglutinans) and Light leaf spot (Pyrenopeziza brassicae) are not on canola seed pathway and do not require testing or inspection to determine freedom.
  • A visual inspection is required for certifying freedom from Darnel ryegrass (Lolium temulentum), Doublegee (Emex Australis) and Common Groundsel (Senecio vulgaris).
  • China also requires freedom from two field pests Soybean Looper (Chrysodeixis includens) and Large cabbage-heart caterpillar (Crocidolomia pavonana). These field pests are unlikely to be detected in canola grain. Visual inspection by an Authorised Officer is sufficient for endorsing freedom from these pests.
  • A laboratory analysis certificate is required for endorsing freedom from Blackleg (Leptosphaeria maculans). Analysis needs to be done on whole samples, including trash and other extraneous materials present in sample.
Canola for processing can be exported from designated Australian export registered establishments (Table 1) to designated Chinese ports (Table 2).

Exporters are to ensure canola for processing is exported to designated Chinese importers (Table 2).

Exporters and establishments not on the below list will need to obtain an import permit which lists their exporter details and/or establishment details in order to export. This will need to be done by the importer. Once obtained, please send a copy of the import permit to Grain.Export@agriculture.gov.au in order to update the table(s).
