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

It is the exporter’s responsibility to ensure that the phytosanitary certificate is issued within 14 days of the consignment being exported from Australia.

Refer to the departure date and inspection date in the Request for Permit.

Where applicable, the exporter is to provide evidence attesting to the endorsement and present it to the Authorised Officer at the time of inspection.


Additional Declaration/Endorsement requirements:

France is the final destination
A phytosanitary certificate with nil additional declaration is to be issued for seeds that will not be re-exported from France.

Seed which will be re-exported from France 
For any consignments in which the seed is intended to be re-exported from France, the exporter is to advise the Authorised Officer of the required endorsement at the time of making an appointment for inspection.

Requests by exporters for additional declarations of seed for sowing being exported to France may be complied with where it is known that the seed shall be re-exported to another destination through a re-export phytosanitary certificate.

Requests for additional declarations to meet re-export requirements

Exporters who require a new EXDOC Endorsement for re-export purposes are to provide written evidence of the additional declarations that need to be endorsed on the phytosanitary certificate. Requests are to be emailed to MicorPlants@aff.gov.au for action. Each endorsement in this Micor case is only valid for 12 months. If exporters want the endorsement extended beyond the current validity date, they need to contact the Grain and Seed Exports Program at grain.export@aff.gov.au to request such an extension.
