Bought plants from several Thai shops?
We collect them in Bangkok, handle the inspection and phytosanitary certificate, and ship everything to you in one box to the USA.
This service is for you if…
You bought from several nurseries
Shipping from each shop means paying for a certificate and shipping every time. Combine them and pay once.
The shop does not ship abroad
Many Thai sellers only ship within Thailand. Have them send the plants to us, and we ship them to you.
Paperwork feels complicated
We arrange the plant inspection and phytosanitary certificate in Bangkok (and CITES permits for listed species).
Prices (USD)
All prices are in US dollars. Import duties and taxes are included (Delivered Duty Paid).
How shipping is calculated
Shipping is charged by the actual weight or the volumetric weight of the box, whichever is greater.
Volumetric weight (kg) = Length × Width × Height (cm) ÷ 5,000
Rounded up to the next 0.5 kg up to 11 kg, and to the next 1 kg above 11 kg.
| Example box | Volumetric weight | Shipping (USA) |
|---|---|---|
| 50 × 20 × 20 cm 1–2 tall plants | 4.0 kg | US$142.59 |
| 60 × 30 × 30 cm several plants | 10.8 kg → 11.0 kg | US$327.10 |
