The Law Implementing the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora serves as the local legislation enforcing CITES in Macau. It requires an import certificate issued by the management authority of the Macao Special Administrative Region, as well as an export or re-export certificate issued by the management authority of the exporting or re-exporting country, or a certificate of origin issued by the exporting country’s management authority. These certificates are mandatory for the import of any scheduled endangered species, whether alive, dead, or in the form of parts or derivatives.
