Export Criteria

Criteria Criteria Required?
Import Permit Yes
Phytosanitary Certificate Refer below
Additional Declaration/Endorsement Refer below
Protocol Market No

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.

Phytophthora root rot (Phytophthora megasperma) is not on the pea seed export pathway. Freedom from this pest may be endorsed without any supporting evidence.

Some import permits may be issued that do not indicate a requirement for a phytosanitary certificate or additional declaration. For these consignments, no phytosanitary certificate is required. However, since peas are a prescribed grain, the products still need to be inspected by an Authorised Officer at a Registered Establishment and be exported under a Request for Permit (RFP) as per standard export requirements for prescribed plant products.

China food registration:

Effective from 1 January 2022, the General Administration of Customs of the People's Republic of China (GACC) implemented changes to registration and labelling requirements for food processing and storage facilities handling food exported to China.

For plant products, these requirements apply to edible grains, milled grain products, malt, fresh-kept/preserved and dehydrated vegetables, dry beans, nuts, seeds, dry fruits, unroasted coffee and cocoa beans.

These requirements do not apply to fresh fruit, unprocessed wheat and unprocessed barley.

Further information on the registration and labelling requirements can be found on the Micor Plants Documents page.
