Import Tips
• 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
