Oh no, so sorry that this happened to you. I have the same friend as Patihum, it was terrible for her too. They now have a strict rule about no import of seeds without a phytosanitary cert. it is the law, unfortunately. BrokenBar's son had his pepper seeds confiscated too, If I remember correctly. She started a thread here about obtaining a PS certificate. I hope someone can search and find it.
Here it is, just found it.
