Default Bringing seeds from India

Yeah one big problem is if you get caught. You will probably get charged
under the Anti Terrorism legislation.

After you have been found guilty by the customs guy, you will probably be
deported to Guantanamo Bay. But thats OK because there are a few people
there so you wont be too lonely.

Hi,

I wonder if some one could tell me of any problem in bringing seeds from
India for planting.

A friend of mine recently came back from India and was bringing me
some Alocasia tubers, unfortunatly due to the heat they had started
sprouting when he got back and the customs wouldnt let him bring them
in. Apparently you can generally bring in seeds etc as long as they
are still dormant.
DEFRA have this publication on their website which may help
