Cabral Moncada Leilões warns of the fact that several countries prohibit the import of goods that incorporate materials from protected wild fauna and flora species, including, among others, ivory, coral and turtle. We therefore advise potential buyers to inform themselves in advance about the applicable legislation, in particular the customs regulations in force in the countries concerned.
