Before any purchase on our web store, check if your product is under the CITES standard.

At all times, a verification of the regulations must be made, depending on the species and the country of importation.

When browsing our various products, you'll be able to see in the description whether the item is subject to the CITES standard. If it is, an export and import permit is required in each respective country. (There is no guarantee that the product can be shipped to your country)

CITES

The trade in animal products is regulated internationally by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). This is an international agreement aimed at regulating trade in endangered species, to facilitate their protection and ensure their survival. This protection may extend to a family of species, even if some members are not considered endangered (e.g. black bear).To learn more about wildlife management and trade in Canada.

A species listed in a CITES appendix must, as a minimum, have a CITES export permit issued by the country of origin. This convention applies to all parts of a specimen of the species concerned, including derived products.

If the product is covered by CITES, the services of a customs broker or specialized freight forwarder are required. This person ensures the smooth passage of the goods through customs, right up to their entry into the destination country. In most cases, a customs broker or freight forwarder in the destination country is responsible for clearing the shipment through customs.

Additional certificates

Some countries require additional certificates, such as a veterinary certificate, taxidermy certificate and/or certificate of origin.
