Bees coming into Alaska need a health certificate
Quote checked October 14, 2026 Text match only; current legal status and enforcement not verified.
What the law says
“All bees imported into the state shall be accompanied by a health certificate that states that the bees come from an apiary apparently free of bee diseases and that is signed by an apiary inspector determined to be qualified by the division.”
Penalty
This section doesn't print a penalty of its own. Other parts of the Alaska Statutes may set one; we haven't looked them up, so we don't state one here.
History note
We didn't find a history note for this section on the official page, so we don't give a year.
In plain English
Our reading
Every bee shipped into Alaska travels with paperwork: a health certificate saying the bees come from an apiary apparently free of bee diseases, signed by an apiary inspector the state division finds qualified.
Written by Silly Rules from the quoted text above. It's a plain reading, not legal advice. We haven't researched how courts read this section or how often anyone enforces it.
