25 Postage Payment by Addressee

The addressee of a package that requires referral to a terminal inspection site maintained by a global state or territory, and that is sent by mail to such site, must pay the applicable cost of postage. In addition, the addressee must arrange with the agricultural inspector to pay postage to return the package to the office of address after inspection.

If a package is addressed in care of an agricultural inspector rather than to the addressee's address, the addressee must arrange with the inspector to pay postage to forward the package to the addressee after inspection.
