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

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.

Note: The Chilean NPPO conducts germination testing on arrival. It is the exporter's responsibility to verify germination requirements with the Chilean NPPO and to meet Chile's germination requirements.

Endorsement 8007:
  • A crop inspection certificate is required to endorse freedom Lentil anthracnose (Colletotrichum truncatum) and insects of the Bruchidae family.

Consignment to be fumigated with:

Methyl bromide at:

  • 48grm/m3 at 21 degrees Celsius or above for 2.5 hours; 

OR

  • 48grm/m3 at 15.9 - 20.9 degrees Celsius for 3 hours;
OR
  • 48grm/m3 at 10.0 - 15.4 degrees Celsius for 3.5 hours
Gas concentrations must be monitored and recorded at the start of fumigation and at reading times as shown in Table 1 after equilibrium has been achieved to assure that the minimum concentration of methyl bromide is maintained.
