2 Herb consignments require an import permit and are subject to inspection at the first port of entry. Herb consignments require
a phytosanitary certificate (PC) with an additional declaration (AD) stating that "The herbs were grown and packed in facilities
approved by the Palestinian Authority National Plant Protection Organization (NPPO) to export to the United States."
Box or carton markings must have the grower number, packing house name and number, and markings indicating that the
herbs were grown and packed in facilities approved by the Palestinian Authority National Plant Protection Organization
(NPPO) for export to the United States.
3 The consignment must be accompanied by a Phytosanitary Certificate (PC) with an Additional Declaration (AD) attesting to
freedom from Brachycerus spp. and Dyspessa ulula. Consignment is admissible into the continental U.S. only and is subject
to inspection at the first port of entry. If inspection reveals the target pests (Brachycerus spp. or D. ulula), the required
fumigation, T101-e-2, is a fumigation under vacuum. However, as of October 2008, there are no APHIS-approved commercial
vacuum chambers in the US. Consignments with target pests must be reexported, destroyed, or returned to the country of
origin.
