CITES Permit Exemptions - Summary

Remember the following points when determining whether an exemption applies:

• Exemptions only apply to personal importations or exportations, not to commercial shipments.

• Exemptions do not apply to live animals and plants.

• Even if an exemption applies, it may be that your country has taken stricter domestic measures regarding personal and household goods. Therefore, carefully check your national legislation.
