<div>Greetings,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I had a recent destructive sampling request for leaf material to be sent to Beijing, China. The researchers did not have up to date information on regulations and necessary paperwork to ship material to China - I wondered if anyone has suggestions about
proper protocols and regulations for shipping leaf material to that country.</div>

<div>Thank you,</div>
