Import Tips
• Obtain CITES permits for mink as it's an Appendix II species; verify origin documentation to avoid seizures
• Label with species name (e.g
• 'Mink') and country of origin per U.S. labeling laws for furs
• Avoid misclassification as mere trimming; full lining or exterior furskin triggers 4303
