Does NOT	Doesn't mean organic — Non-GMO products can use synthetic pesticides and fertilizers freely.	Mutual recognition with the US, EU, and Canada applies to specific product categories — check each agreement before importing.	OPAC (peer-review) certified products are valid in Brazil but typically not accepted for export — exporters need third-party (e.g. IBD).	Provincial sales-only operations are not legally required to carry it (though many do voluntarily).
