Does NOT	Mutual recognition with the US, EU, and Canada applies to specific product categories — check each agreement before importing.	Newer label (2018+) — supply still limited, mostly US brands.	Australia has multiple competing organic certifiers — NASAA is one of seven, not the dominant national mark (that's ACO).	Australia has no single mandatory organic mark — ACO is the dominant one, but NASAA, OFC, and others also certify.
