    • Applicants must provide botanical and common names of the plant material.
    • Details on desired plant parts (e.g., bulbs, cuttings, seeds) and their amounts are required.

    • Present location must be specified along with USDA Import Permit Number if applicable.

    Proposed Use and Justification

    • Clear articulation of the intended use of the plant material is necessary.
    • Justification for introducing the material should be thoroughly explained to assess compliance.

    Proposed Holding Site

    • Information regarding where the material will be held post-importation needs to be included.

    Sugarcane Guidelines

    • Sugarcane plants and parts require specific documentation for entry.

    • Certain states require additional certifications regarding pests such as Witchweed.

    Plant Material Exiting Florida

    • Plant materials leaving Florida, including cut foliage and flowers, must have proper certificates.
