What type of permits do you need to import to the US

Wondering if it takes a lot to get imported BP from Africa. What permits, who to call, e-mail? Any info would be great. Thanks.

Start with U.S. Fish and Wildlife and check your state and local laws. Different areas will allow different animals so you want to make sure any species is under local and state law.

After you get the permits who would you get the balls from. I was wondering this today at work about how the heck you would go about getting balls from africa and then i come on and you started a thread about it. Getting permits would probably be the easy part trying to find a supplier seems the hard part.

If you do a search in the forums for importers you will see a good thread on this. Its under law/cites forums in kingsnake. By the looks of it. it cost a fortune to import from africa and looks very costly.
