CITES Re-export Certificates for Certain Wildlife

Law Enforcement issues certain re-export certificates for Appendix-II and –III wildlife unless a permit is required under 50 CFR Part 17 (Endangered or Threatened Species), Part 18 (Marine Mammal), or Part 21 (Migratory Bird). If a permit is required under these regulations, the Division of Management Authority will issue the re-export certificate. CITES is the International Trade in Endangered Species.
