I don't think most of the pet shops in New Mexico are

aware that they may be in violation when it comes to

importing reptiles from other states. This is just another

attempt to try to cripple the reptile industry.



From the Form:

IMPORTATION PERMIT APPLICATION

NON-GAME/ Wildlife Held as Pets



NEW MEXICO DEPARTMENT OF GAME & FISH License Application Fees: $25.00/animal (that's per animal)

LAW ENFORCEMENT DIVISION Fees are non-refundable

SPECIAL USE PERMITS PROGRAM

P.O. BOX 25112

SANTA FE, NEW MEXICO 87504

(505) 476-8064

Fax (505) 476-8166



Please submit this application along with the required documents and the appropriate fee to the above address. If there are

any required documents missing, the application process may be substantially delayed. Application must be submitted at least

two (2) weeks prior to proposed importation. Importation is not guaranteed. A valid permit must be issued before lawful

entry into New Mexico.
