Peccary Leather: How To Import From Peru To Asia

The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) entered into force in 1975, and became the only treaty to ensure that international trade in plants and animals does not threaten their survival in the wild. A State or country that has agreed to implement the Convention is called a Party to CITES. Currently, there are 183 Parties. They include 182 member countries and the European Union.

Peccary is also known as Tayassuidae and appears in Appendix II of the CITES. Appendix II is composed of species that, although currently not threatened with extinction, may become so without trade controls. Most CITES species are listed in this appendix.

Permits: Are more than paperwork

cites-example

The backbone of CITES is the permit system that facilitates international cooperation in conservation and trade monitoring of cites-listed species. Permits are issued only if a country’s Management and Scientific Authorities determine that trade is legal and does not threaten the species’ survival. The use of standardized permit forms allows officials at points of export and import to verify that specimens are properly documented. They also allow for the collection of species-specific trade data to determine trends in trade, identifying increases or decreases in trade levels that may indicate a need to reassess a species listing in the cites Appendices. (Pag. 14 / Fish & Wildlife News).
