Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify flowers are fresh and not dried or dyed to avoid reclassification; provide phytosanitary certificates from origin

• Declare exact quantity by weight or bunch count; common pitfall is insufficient cooling chain documentation for perishables

• Comply with USDA APHIS import permits for cut flowers to prevent pest introduction
