When shipping non-human primate samples from outside the United States, are there any special documentation requirements?
A. Yes. The term “CITES” must be the first item listed in the airway bill description. Please include two sets of all documentation (CITES permits, CDC permits, etc). Include one set inside the package, stored dry and separate from the sample (in a “zip-lock” type bag). And include one set attached to the exterior of the package in a document pouch. More information is located on our recommendation on sample collection, storage, & shipment.
