HOW TO IMPORT FROM AUSTRALIA

---

AS OF MARCH 1, 2024, WE HAVE DECIDED TO NO LONGER EXPORT FEATHERS OUTSIDE OF AUSTRALIA, EVEN THOUGH WE ARE LICENSED TO DO SO. BECAUSE WE ARE A COMMERCIAL EXPORTER THE TIME IT IS TAKING TO PREPARE THE APPROPRIATE PAPERWORK IS NOT FEASIBLE FOR US AND IS AFFECTING OUR OPERATION. WE ARE BASED IN AUSTRALIA AND ARE ONLY SHIPPING OUR FEATHERS TO ALL CUSTOMERS IN AUSTRALIA.

United States Customers: Only purchase items with an "(EX)" in their title - and they can be shipped from Australia legally to you, anywhere in the United States. You don't require a CITES import permit for non-commercial use.
Our CITES export permit is comprehensive and covers both the export and import of the feather specimens into the United States.

Customers in Europe & Other Countries: Like for USA customers, you can only order/purchase items with an "(EX)" in their title. A CITES import permit may also be required in your country.

How it works
A) Once an order is placed: You'll receive a copy of the CITES export permit, the invoice and other relevant paperwork - usually within 2 days after the dispatch of your order.
B) If you're in the United Kingdom, Canada, a European country or any other country (except the United States) - you may need to contact the CITES Management Authority in your Country to obtain a CITES import permit, while your order is in transit. You will require a copy of the export permit, so please don't hesitate to contact us if you don't receive a copy of the CITES export documentation within 2 days after the dispatch of your order.

*Your local CITES Authority may charge you for the import permit, but it's usually not much.

If you're in the United States, you don't need a CITES import permit (if you're not commercially reselling in the USA) - but you only need to complete a 3-177 declaration form prior to your feathers arriving into the USA port system, as to ensure the US Fish & Wildlife Service are aware of your import.
