Import Tips
• Obtain import permits for boxwood due to pest risks like boxwood blight; check PPQ 526 form requirements
• Label clearly as 'fresh ornamental foliage' to distinguish from live plants and avoid reclassification
• Monitor temperature during shipping (keep below 5°C) to maintain freshness and prevent duty disputes
