Hello everyone, I have a question most likely only U.S. members can answer, (well, maybe Malaysian ones also). I am looking to purchase one flask of a phalaenopsis species from Malaysia, and have it shipped to myself in the U.S. Phalaenopsis artificially propagated species in sterile culture, are exempt from CITES, according to the Fish and Wildlife webpage. The seller of the flasks mentioned that I needed an import permit and to send it to them. Now, it doesn't appear that I need CITES paperwork, but is there a different type of import permit, and where do I need to inquire to get one? I've been to the webpage of fws for cites permits, but think there must be a more general one for this occasion. I didn't think I needed any permits to import flasks, but then I know basically nothing about it at all.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, charles phal luedd. possibly var. delicata, pulcherrima, stuartiana, peloric equestris in flower -- Charles Ufford Calen the Border Collie CGC - now in Heaven Oriskany, NY USA IPA, Central NY and Southern Tier Orchid Societies [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.paphiopedilum.net Http://www.geocities.com/charlesufford
