Agricultural imports hinge on correct paperwork. Two documents come up again and again: the phytosanitary certificate and the certificate of origin.
Phytosanitary certificate
A phytosanitary certificate confirms that plant-based products have been inspected and are free from regulated pests and diseases, meeting the import requirements of the destination country. It's essential for commodities like beans, pulses, coffee, grains and spices.
Certificate of origin
A certificate of origin states the country where the goods were produced. It can affect duties and tariff treatment, and is often required for customs clearance and trade-agreement benefits.
