EU Exports
European Plant Export Information
Shipping Premium Plants to Europe with Official Documentation
We're excited to offer our rare and exotic plant collection to European customers! To ensure your plants arrive safely and legally, all European deliveries require official phytosanitary certification as mandated by EU import regulations.
How Our Monthly Export System Works
Exporting plants legally requires expensive inspections and phytosanitary certificates. To reduce fees and streamline administration, all European orders are processed and exported together after our monthly inspection window closes. This batch system makes international shipping more efficient and cost-effective for everyone.
Monthly Export Schedule
- Plant inspections: Conducted around the 20th of each month by certified plant health officials
- Order window: Closes on the 20th of each month
- Order processing: All orders fulfilled immediately after certificates are issued
- Shipping window: All European deliveries dispatched by month-end
- Email notifications: Tracking information sent before dispatch
Pricing and What's Included
- Phytosanitary certificate: £25 per plant (converted to Euro at current rates)
- Delivery charge: €25 per order (covers any quantity of plants)
- Heat pad protection: Included with every shipment
- Professional packaging: Specialist plant packaging included
- Royal Mail International Tracked: 3-7 working days delivery
- Insurance: Up to €250 coverage included
Adding to Existing Orders
If you've already placed a European order this month and want to add more plants, choose "add to existing order" at checkout (no additional shipping fees). Use the same email address or include your order number in the checkout notes. All items will be combined into one package with a single phytosanitary certificate.
Legal Requirements and Import Responsibilities
We provide all UK export documentation and phytosanitary certificates as required by law. However, you remain responsible for meeting import requirements in your country. Please check your local laws regarding:
- Import permits or notifications
- Customs taxes and fees
- Inspection station delivery requirements
- Additional documentation needs
Contact your local plant health authorities before placing your order to ensure you understand all import requirements.
