Hi everyone,?

I'm a beginner to the hobby. I bought this bonsai from a local shop and it was mentioned as an indoor plant. No further details were provided about the specics. However after 2 weeks, the leaves started turning yellow and dropping. I'm suspecting that this may be an outdoor plant and it's a Japanese Holly based on my research. Hence, it should be placed outdoors.

Can anyone help as the bonsai is dying? Your help is much appreciated. Thank you all!

Best,
Royce

There are no such thing as indoor bonsai. At least not in the way you think. The industry marks indoor on all trees they cannot produce efficiently outdoors. What they do with theese species is growing them in greenhouses, which is technically indoors. But it is not constant livingroom conditions, which is proboably what you think it means.

There are not one single tree species in the world that grow naturally in year round livingroom conditions. There are a few tropical understory trees that can be kept in livingroom condition. But for perfect health and development it is best to just bring them indoors for the winter. Temperature controlled greenhouse works best, but livingroom conditions can be accepted. When conditions is good outdoors they should be outdoors.

Sorry, I cannot tell what species you have. But it looks beyond rescue to me. Taking it outdoors with a slow transfer from full shade to full sun may help to revive it althou chanses are low.
