Import Tips
• Verify phytosanitary certificates confirming treatment for pests, as required for dried plant materials
• Label packages clearly with 'dried flowers' to avoid misclassification as fresh under 0603.10
• Check for dye or chemical impregnation, which may trigger additional FDA or EPA reviews
