Hi dear friends,

I'm new here! Can you please help me and tell me whats the procedure for selling plants online (on ebay! ) do i need some specific certificate or i can just send them I'm mail?

Thank you so so much!

Which country are you in and which country do you want to sell to?

From Thailand to USA or Australia? Is there any difference?

Well for starters, you might find the Australian Quarantine and Customs Departments would take a very dim view of ANY attempts

to send Plants into Australia.

Your products will be intercepted by Quarantine and Destroyed unless you are somehow,able to get a clearance on certain plants, which I rather doubt is going to happen but you can try.

Best of luck !

Apart from quarantine , you will also get quite a few problems with plants left out on the tarmac in the hot sun then placed into the cold temperature of cargo holds , squashed and damaged plants from transit.and careless handling .

And what plants are there available in Thailand that are not available from the warmer climates of USA or Australia. You will be competing with a lot of very experienced players unless you choose and become an expert in a niche market yourself The cost of freighting single plants even by Post Office will be the same if not more than hundreds of plants .

There is also PBR (Plant Breeder Rights ) you will have to contend with paying royalties to the breeders who have developed the plants. A lot of paperwork involved there.

What would your returns policy be ?

Sorry to sound negative and they are not insurmountable problems but ones you should be aware of.

This is assuming you plan to send plants internationally - within Thailand some of these items may not apply .

Best of Luck.

Seeds are ok and more difficult to get hold of abroad
