Canada: Traveling With Lulav & Esrog to the USA
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (Department of Homeland Security) have made inspectors at border posts between Canada and the United States aware of the upcoming Sukkos Holiday • Full Story
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (Department of Homeland Security) have made inspectors at border posts between Canada and the United States aware of the upcoming Sukkos Holiday. They have kindly arranged that there will be agricultural specialists available throughout the Yom Tov traveling period.
It is recommended that travelers use the Champlain Border (Lacolle), as this border post will have more inspectors available.
At the same time, arrangements have also been made at Montreal’s Pierre Elliot Trudeau International Airport.
People who are traveling with Lulav and Esrog will be requested to hand these items over for examination at all border posts. Once these items have been inspected and are free of pests and/or diseases, they will be released. Members of border inspection are sensitive to the handling of these items, and will ensure at all times that the passenger opens, unwraps and rewraps the Lulav & Esrog.
We have been asked to remind all travelers to have all of their travel documents well prepared and up to date.
We take this opportunity of wishing you and your families a good Yom Tov.
