Ambergris Chunks Raw from Germany

Raw ambergris chunks collected from ocean beaches, lightly salted for preservation and used in perfume fixation. Ambergris is explicitly named in tariff item 0510.00.00 as an animal product used in pharmaceutical or perfume preparations, and the light salting qualifies as provisional preservation.

Import Tips

• Verify CITES requirements, as ambergris from sperm whales may be regulated despite being naturally shed

• Keep documentation showing the ambergris was collected legally and not from hunting

• Declare the product as 'ambergris, raw, salted' to avoid misclassification as a processed perfume ingredient
