Résumé

This Part of Title 50 lays down prohibitions and requirements relating to the import of any exotic bird species into the United States. The provisions in this part are in addition to, and are not in lieu of, other regulations of this subchapter B that may require a permit or prescribe additional restrictions or conditions for the import, export, reexport, and transportation of wildlife. Except as provided under a permit issued pursuant to subpart C of this part, it is unlawful for any person (I) to import into the United States any exotic bird species listed in the Appendices to CITES that is not included in the approved list of species; (II) to import into the United States any exotic bird species not listed in the Appendices to CITES that is listed in the prohibited species list; (III) to import into the United States any exotic bird species from any country included in the prohibited country list; (IV) to import into the United States any exotic bird species from a qualifying facility breeding exotic birds in captivity; and (V) to engage in any activity with an exotic bird imported under a permit issued pursuant to this part that violates a condition of said permit. Subpart C sets out the procedures for the permit authorizing the importation of exotic birds for the following purposes only: scientific research; zoological breeding or display programs; cooperative breeding programs designed to promote the conservation and maintenance of the species in the wild; or personally owned pets accompanying persons returning to the United States after being out of the country for more than 1 year. The list of captive-bred exotic bird species in paragraph 15.33(a), for which importation into the United States is approved, shall be reviewed periodically by the Director.
