About this statute

This Order sets rules for importing pests, plants, and plant products for scientific research, and for inspecting, restricting, prohibiting, and importing certain plants, pests, beneficial organisms, quarantine organisms, and related items that may spread pests or diseases, including the form of a phytosanitary certificate. Anyone entering the country must declare any plants, plant products, or other regulated articles they have to the plant inspector. Anyone or a company planning to import a plant, plant product, or other regulated articles must apply in writing for an import license to the competent authority. A person may import a plant, plant product, or other regulated articles only if the required documents are presented to the concerned officer. The phytosanitary certificate format is set out in Annex III, for certificates issued to a person who meets the destination country’s requirements.
