The notified draft Resolution establishes updated phytosanitary requirements for the importation of maize seeds to avoid the entry of quarantine pests into Chile. The requirements include additional declarations for pests such as Stenocarpella macrospora, Pantoea stewartii and Prostephanus truncatus. In addition, the requirements applicable to shipments for research and development, as opposed to shipments for propagation and trade, are specified. The new regulations also remove the additional declaration that was previously required for maize seeds. Further details can be found in the document attached to this notification.
