If this is the same free-but-required "

referenced in post 40 above, I'd be interested in anything you have time to say about the process.
Even if it's something else, I'd be interested, as that would indicate that it's important to get the right permit for particular purposes.
I expect many others would be interested, as well . . . probably you'd never know how many, as it does seem that anyone getting seeds from any other country who doesn't want to get themselves or their seed sender into a hassle with Customs really should get the permit . . . and get the right one, so they're only getting what they need for a small number of packets, not what's needed for large or commercial importers.
