Declaring Plant Permits in Singapore – How Declarators Can Help

For businesses importing or exporting plants, flowers, and plant products, proper declaration of plant permits is essential to ensure compliance with Singapore Customs and the Singapore Food Agency (SFA). Accurate declarations protect your shipments from delays, fines, or rejection at the border.

 

At Declarators, we specialize in assisting companies with plant permit declarations, ensuring smooth, compliant trade operations for all types of plants and flowers.

What is a Plant Permit Declaration?

A plant permit declaration is the process of submitting accurate information about your plants, flowers, seeds, or other plant products to Singapore Customs when importing or exporting. This ensures that:

 

  • All shipments comply with SFA regulations
  • Goods are properly classified and identified
  • Phytosanitary requirements are met to prevent the spread of pests or diseases

Incorrect or incomplete declarations can lead to shipment holds, fines, or rejection by authorities.

When You Need to Declare Plant Permits

You must declare a plant permit when:

 

  • Importing or exporting plants, flowers, seeds, soil, or plant products
  • Goods are classified under regulated plant items as defined by the SFA
  • Maintaining phytosanitary compliance is required for international shipping

Declarators helps businesses determine whether a permit is required and ensures it is declared correctly the first time.
