We are amending the
regulations to allow the importation of
commercial shipments of fresh longan
with stems from Taiwan into the United
States. As a condition of entry, the
longan will be subject to cold treatment
and special port-of-arrival inspection
procedures for certain quarantine pests.
In addition, the fruit will have to be
accompanied by a phytosanitary
certificate stating that the fruit was
inspected and found to be free of certain
quarantine pests, and the individual
cartons or boxes in which the longan are
shipped will be stamped or printed with
a statement prohibiting their
importation into or distribution in the
State of Florida. This action will allow
for the importation of commercial
shipments of fresh longan with stems
from Taiwan into the United States
while continuing to provide protection
against the introduction of quarantine
pests into the United States
