Import Tips

• Obtain phytosanitary certificates from the exporting country to verify the roses are pest-free, as required by USDA APHIS for all fresh cut flowers

• Declare exact variety and quantity accurately to avoid reclassification; common pitfalls include misstating as 'standard' roses under .00.40

• Maintain cold chain during transit (2-5°C) to preserve freshness, as wilting can lead to customs rejection or penalties
