Shipping to Hawaii
- All agricultural items, including plants, plant parts, microorganism cultures, arthropods and soil require inspection upon arrival in Hawaii. These items must be checked before the shipment can be released to ensure they are free of pests or will not become pests themselves.
- For more information on shipping to Hawaii, visit the Hawaii Department of Agriculture (HDOA) Website.
- By meeting the destination's requirements, island exporters can promote and sell Hawaii's agricultural products to new markets without delays or rejections. Each state or foreign country has its own regulations concerning the importation of agricultural commodities in order to protect that state's or country's important agricultural crops or natural resources.
- The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) oversees the shipping of agricultural products from Hawaii. Please refer to USDA website for more information.
