Import Permit Example (what you may have to send me):
The Scottish authorities (the Scottish Executive) advise that I can get a
phytosanitary certificate whenever required. However, in some cases a
necessary import permit from the receiving country has to be obtained
first. I quote the Scottish Executive, with regard to an enquiry from
South Africa they told me, "Inspections can not be
carried out until you have the import permit. The import permit may detail
conditions that have to be met prior to export. Until we know what these
conditions are we can not proceed."
If this is required, obviously, it is dependent on you to obtain and send
me the import permit first.
Here is an example of what an Import Permit might specify. This one
is from South Africa.
Note that this is quite a strict one, specifying the number, size and even
the age of the cuttings. Specifying that the plants are packed soil-free
(which is not ideal, it is better for the plants if I can send fully rooted
plants potted in soil rather than cuttings). And specifying all the
diseases and bugs which the plants must be found free from.
