Import Tips

• Obtain a phytosanitary certificate from the exporting country confirming the plants are free from pests and diseases specific to orchids

• Verify plant health upon arrival and declare as live herbaceous perennials to avoid reclassification as cut flowers under 0603

• Check for CITES permits if the species is endangered, as many orchids like certain Phalaenopsis hybrids may require them
