FAQ (reference)
Do all succulent shipments require a phytosanitary certificate?
Phytosanitary certification is commonly required for importing live plants, but requirements vary by destination and plant category. Importers should confirm destination rules with local authorities or a customs broker before shipment arrangement.
Do all succulents require CITES permits?
No. CITES permits apply only to taxa listed under CITES. Permit requirements depend on scientific name and destination regulations.
Who handles import permits and clearance procedures?
Import permits, inspection booking, and destination-side clearance are typically handled by the importer or their appointed customs broker.
Why is bare-root packing common for cross-border plant shipments?
Many destinations restrict soil entry for live plants. Bare-root preparation is commonly used to align with soil-entry restrictions and reduce transit risks. Final packing method depends on destination requirements and carrier constraints.
