Importation of Biological Materials Page Redesigned!
We’re excited to announce the launch of our newly redesigned Importation of Biological Materials webpage! The updated page features improved navigation, clearer guidance, and easier access to information about importing biological materials. Imported plants, pathogens, and pests can pose enhanced risks to humans, animals, native plants, the economy, and the environment. Because of these heightened risks, federal agencies such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) may require permits for the import and transport of materials. Visit the updated page to explore resources, permitting information, and helpful guidance for staying compliant.
