Last updated: July 2026 dataClassified under a single line (1007100000), grain sorghum seed intended for planting is subject to USDA APHIS phytosanitary requirements at entry, including a phytosanitary certificate from the exporting country attesting to pest and disease freedom. Argentina is the leading US supplier of sorghum seed, reflecting that country's well-developed commercial seed industry and export infrastructure. Importers should confirm that seed lots meet APHIS import permit conditions and any applicable state-level seed laws before shipment, as non-compliance can result in treatment or destruction at the port.

USDA APHIS regulates the importation of seeds for sowing, and a phytosanitary certificate from the country of origin is required. Depending on the origin and any associated pest risk, APHIS may also require a specific import permit or treatment (e.g., fumigation) prior to release. Importers should consult APHIS's Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) unit and review the applicable permit conditions well before shipment.
The distinction is based on intended use and commercial presentation: seed for sowing (1007100000) is typically treated, certified, and packaged for planting, while commodity sorghum grain for feed or industrial use falls under 1007900000. CBP may request seed certification documents or treatment records to confirm the sowing-seed classification, particularly for untreated bulk lots that could be confused with feed grain.
