The Commissioner may enter into reciprocal agreements with the certifying agency of other states whereby no certificate fee will be required, provided Alabama nurserymen and dealers are permitted to ship nursery stock into such states without having to pay a fee for an inspection certificate or permit granting that privilege.
(2) Nursery stock entering the State of Alabama must be certified as being apparently free from plant pests. Certificate tags issued by the official certifying agency of the state of origin stating such must be firmly attached to each box, bundle or package of nursery stock moved into the state.
