Good morning everyone.
So i need some help or info if anyone can offer any insight.
I am importing a saltwater crocodile taxidermy from australia.
It arrived through Vancouver last saturday is destined for ontario.
I have a verified/approved cites export form that was attached to the shipment from the exporter.
I was checking the tracking, and it said it couldn't not clear customs
That being said, i have contacted cites and CBSA, and the exporter, because he said there would be no issues since the export permit was approved.
When I was looking at the Canadian site for cites, the species is crocodylus porosus, and is listed as appendix 1 & 2
Appendix one requires a 'IMPORT' document as well as export, where as appendix 2 only requires export. (I am confused as my package only had export form. since it is listed under both do I need a import for or not?).
CBSA said it was too early, and everything is delayed so i should wait longer.
So i waited 4 months to get it the export form approved, but i would like everything to be smooth.
Also, it's for personal use, just as a showpiece for display, not for commercial or scientific research so I'm not trading it.
