ICR does not apply to Poa sphondylodes.

Any consignments with an ISTA analysis certificate which states a presence of soil greater than 0.1% of the sample (weight by weight) are required to be retested in Chile for soil. If testing in Chile confirms that soil presence is greater than 0.1% of the sample weight, the consignment will be rejected. Additionally, if soil is found during on-arrival inspection in Chile, the consignment will be rejected. It is the exporter's responsibility to ensure the soil content of a consignment meets Chile's requirements.


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

Explanation of endorsement 1379:

  • Bent grass nematode (Anguina agrostis) is known not to occur in Australia. No evidence is required to endorse freedom from this pest.
  • A laboratory analysis certificate is required to endorse freedom from Stem nematode (Ditylenchus dipsaci).

Option 1 (EXDOC Endorsement 1379)
